I've owned a few factory bikes and find them too aggressive for my occasional riding these days. I like them because of the extra bling (suspension, brakes etc) and resale value.
I'm tempted to get another and making it as soft as possible with low compression head insert, flywheel weight and possibly a slow action throttle. Arm pump is my biggest issue, probably due to lack of bike time.
Do the factory bikes have different ignition modules that make them more aggressive? If so would it be an idea to fit an ignition module from a non factory bike?
Any other tricks to soften things off?
Cheers
