[QUOTE="rbentnail, post: 1391653, member: 13598"] I guess that's possible. I tend to stay in the 3000- 5000 range for the majority of my riding but will rev 'er up once in a while. You asked in your OP if the Barbarian mod might help. Now, I don't know about the AE side of things, and lots of non-'07 folks will prolly gnash teeth and wring hands, but [SIZE=18px][B]I[/B][/SIZE] feel the Barbarian mod helped [SIZE=18px][B]my[/B][/SIZE] '07 a lot. Remember, the '07 was (still is!) a bass turd in many ways. IIRC I bumped up about 7 pts on each one and it made a big difference with "smoothness" throughout my "normal" speed range. I say- give it a shot. It's an easy adjustment (move a wire) and an easier "put back". I logged in my owners manual what I started with and incrementally tried. Another recommendation- from this point on completely disregard anything about the Barbarian mod said by anyone who does not now or has not in the past owned an '07. Sure it's an FJR but sometimes it's not. [/QUOTE]
