benelli bn125 performance upgrade that still works every day
I am helping a new rider plan a benelli bn125 performance upgrade. The bike is used for commuting, so I do not want a mod list that makes it louder, thirstier and still slow.
I found this related page while comparing notes: benelli bn125 performance upgrade. I wanted a practical thread before ordering parts.
Would you check plug, valve history, air filter, intake leaks, chain slack, sprockets, brake drag, tire pressure, battery voltage and the same hill before exhaust, sprocket or fueling changes?
