I'm looking for a way to get maybe 15 - 20 more horsepower out of my '08 Uly. Any suggestions. It is stock at this point.

Forgetting the 'why' - what about NOS.

From what I understand increasing the bore is the only real way. Its close to its optimum as is with EPA cams. You get 1 HP with every 8 pounds you or the bike loses

You bought the wrong bike. Trade in for a 1125CR with upright bars.

Turn the throttle some more, the throttle travel is so long you practically need to double up on your grip to pin it.

When the throttle is pinned you will notice a substantial difference.

2007 would have been a better option to tune up.

The 88" kit should do rather nicely if ya throw on a set of heads and use the right cams.

Better get one of these while you're at it.

Who are (and why) are you trying 2 beat? Are you drag racing? Is you penis tiny? what are you trying to accomplish?...do you want to bust wheelies at 75 mph? ... you should have bought an R1. you have one of the best handleing and riding bikes ever made....if u can't blow away normal squid u need a few track days training...if u want an unbeatable track bike buy a 1000 cc jap track star and enjoy it, but curse it on your regular daily rides... My bud has a Duc 999R can't keep up with me cause it sucks as a real road bike...I couldn't ever touch one on the track...but that not where I ride...he does not track ride either...but he loves to tell everyone he spent $30K on a 999R...I have vented!
