"Max power" has alot of meanings, and that guy should know that. My #1 question to myself when I have to ask that is - How often will I have to rebuild my motor? Which is far more expensive and time consuming to me than draining my gas tank after each ride/race.

I upgrade whatever I can afford at the time.

Yes I just recently tuned my bike for max power. But let me add some clarity, I wanted the most I could get with the pipes it had and to run on premium pump gas thus leaving it at a decent state of reliability. Next upgrade and the biggest one before a trackday is DEFINITELY tires. Without question. Then comes suspension and then power.

Usually I wait on the power for the last, but I had the bike in for stator replacement and could get a PCIII installed during that same hour of labor so I went ahead with it.
