1200 festival xdream 20107/6/2023 Dyno charts prove this will give you 15 more horses and more torque at the higher RPM ranges, plus improved my gas mileage. 2) Get the Power Commander V fuel injection system by Dyna Jet along with Auto Tune. Your bike will sound like a muscle car! It is also 20 pounds lighter than the stock HD exhaust and squeezes 12 more horses out of your engine. Stage 1 performance modifications I recommend to get the most out of your XR1200X or XR1200 1) Get the SUPERTRAPP XR1200 2:2 MEGAPHONE Exhaust SYSTEM. At a stop, the bike's idle will pull you forward in 2nd gear without stalling! My friend who rides a Honda CBR 1000RR was amazed by that. Yes, those bikes can scream by if the straightaway is a little longer, but by the time they catch up, I'm carving the turn and torqueing out again-just like in flat track. No one! Not BMW, not Yamaha, not Honda, which are all outstanding bikes, but all fall to the bikes launch torque in tight city streets. Louis, MO USA has beaten me racing around the streets on my XR1200. Get a VMax if that's what you’re into-but no one in St. It's a flat track race bike for the street-that's all it is. The low end torque is fabulous and it's meant to race strongly around street corners at 55MPH-with short spurts of 110 to 120 MPH until I hit another turn. My XR1200X is a kick ass bike that likes to brawl and won't get tired and never lets me down. The average Harley owner here in the States spends $10,000 additional in performance modifications to their engines, breaks, body ect because that's what Harley Davidson is all about-customization- to make your bike uniquely different than everyone else's. As a former Yamaha owner, I had to learn that all Harley's are bone stock, with tons of room for modifications. But, I eventually got mine and I love it. I'm in American street racer and we had to wait a year to get the first "American" XR1200. This bike is all about the engine and suspension.įirst, let me say that I'm mildly pissed off Europeans got this bike first. It's a bike that doesn't force you to go fast but it will surprise you if you pushed it. Bought the XR because it is slow but still good fun, would recommend it to anyone with a fast bike that needs an everyday ride that's still good fun and handles great. The lack of attention to detail is the biggest annoyance.īought the bike because the gearbox on my R1 went bang and couldn't resist sending it to Kevin Stephenson to get more power out of it, big tick on the power front but I don't have enough will power and would lose my license if I rode it every day. Indicator switches on both sides is mad because you have to have to let go of the throttle and brake to be able to turn right!! Self cancelling is great and should be on all bikes so that seems to conform to the philosophy of HD 50% right is good enough. Tick over is too lumpy at traffic lights.
