Absolutely.. The cheapest performance enhancer is stripping pounds off,, off the bike or the rider,,after that, its getting the exhaust & jetting right,

now that I'm old the weight doesn't come off as easy.. too much beer & pizza, inactivity doesn't help either..

these savages are light, every pound makes a difference

From what I'm told that's not any way easy to shed pounds. Thankfully I've never had to deal with that issue. I'm almost 59 and still a svelte 160#. Come to think of it......I was only 135# when I got out of high school.  Shocked It's happening to me too! What do I do???? Roll Eyes Cheesy

the easiest and cheapest way? then select the highest hill with a good track, remove the engine from the chassis and brakes and rush down ...and you will lose weight while racing with this slide  Grin

Roger that.  The Dyna did wonders for mine, just follow the guide in the tech section.  Also, I really like what the KN air filter did.  Some guys don't like it, but I'm not sure why.
