I'm hoping that this is covered somewhere else and that one of you will be kind enough to point a nub like me to the right place.

I have an 06 t-100. I'd like to get more top end out of it, and for some reason the bike has never really inspired my confidence during steep corners.

The last bike that I rode was a '72 bmw r/75 and maybe it's because I was younger, but the bm'r seems more nimble and more comfortable at higher speeds.

I commute about 100 miles round trip to work every day. I get horrible gas mileage (have to hit the reserve around 120 miles). I don't mind this, but I'd like to bike to be a bit more inspiring when i get on it.

Any hints, suggestions, gfy's or links to where I might find the information I seed would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks.

You can get lots of ideas from newbonneville.com and britishcustoms.com.

I've had a 904cc kit, airbox removal kit, cylinder head update, billet aluminum intake manifolds, and Nology coils & wires installed on mine, and it makes a dramatic increase in power.
