Hey Guys, I have a ST4S currently and want to update to a 1100 MTS for more comfort and the extra Sus' travel, but I know i will miss the power (trust me) so has anyone gained much with any mods? eg Cams+ DP ECU, pipes, reset squish, you know, this kind of combo? I know I'll never get the same performance as the ST, but, half way there might help,

Thanks in advance, :D

Jon has done some great upgrades to his bike.

Maybe he'll chime in!

I got my multi 1100s when I traded in my ST3. The difference in hp was noticable initially, but after a while I could care less. The multi is lighter, more nimble, and is just a fun bike to ride.

But I guess there is no substitute for hp. :)

Thanks for your input Molly' but as they say "power corrupts" and I'm rather beyond redemtion here, so if any of you guys have had success in engine mods please chime in :)

I might even get a 1000DS and do a big bore with high comp pistals, as 1100's are rare on the market and stealers want close to new price for demos :(
