Lacking power?

I own have a had my Marauder for a couple years now. I have no complaints since it is an entry level bike. I found the bike was a little shy on power (don´t get me wrong it makes way more than the equivilant Kawi´s and Honda´s) as I am around the 200 lb mark. If you really want to wake this bike up remove the factory filters and baffles and drop in some K&N´s, put on a decient open pipe (Hard Chrome, DG, Vance and Hines, or Cobra). Then have a mechanic put in a Dynojet Stage 2 Kit (do not attempt this yourself, the carbs are diffrent and very very hard to set). The power and throttle response are a night and day difference.
