I'm currently looking at modifying a cbr600 to get more power. Except changing cams and valves etc, is there anything external that could be done eg.change plenum shape/design.. Has anyone skimmed the head of a cbr? The exhaust is modified to 4-2-1 already. Thanks.

I've got a GSXR600 (SRAD carbed version). I fitted a race pipe and k&N, had it re-jetted at Brands Hatch Performance Tuners and this raised peak power to 104bhp. Sounded nicer too with better throttle response. 4 horse makes a noticeable difference on a bike weighing 175kgs.

not sure how close the vakves are to the piston tops, so skimming might lead to contact between them! not good. i think oyu're best doing the above mods first after that and i think you have to start looking at more majour stuff (like you said). someone might beable to do some port work for you though, but not suire about any gains!

thanks Chris.
