First thing that comes to mind is make sure everything is fresh. Fresh oil, fresh plugs, clean and synced carbs ect. Next I would say K&N filter, slip-on, jet kit, ignition advancer...

speaking of ignition advancers (sorry for thread hijacking) When i got the bike in many pieces i found one in a coffee can. By the looks of it looks like the one sold on CBRZONE.com I believe it is the adjustable unit. How are they beneficial to our engines?

fastest and most common way is drop the front sprocket by a certain number of teeth, it''s 15 stock, and add teeth to the back sprocket, it''s 43 stock, most common config is -1/+2
