April 12, 20179 yr I currently own a 260 repsol 4rt with plenty of upgrades. Twin map throttle body, bigger radiator, termigoni system etc . . . I'm toying with the idea of sticking a big bore kit on it, has anyone gone from having a 260 to a 280? did you notice any difference?
April 12, 20179 yr I bought a 2009 with 280 kit and put it back to a 250 and found much more manageable. My 15 260 is nicer again so unless you feel you are struggling for power would be 100 certain before spending a lot of time and money etc. What maps are you running? What is your riding style? PS -apologies for being cheeky above
April 12, 20179 yr Author Dont worry im not rushing in to it. Its a lot of cash if theres not much difference. Ive fitted stiffer fork springs with 5wt oil. Fitted a trp rear shock with the right weight spring. Im running the mild and wild maps. I hate revving any bike to death to make it move hence the 4 stroke. I mainly use 1st and 2nd gears odd time 3rd on steep hills. I may just need to learn to be more agressive with the bike. Im finding it may need a bit more low down power to shift my backside. I have lost 1.5st since new year to improve this though. No offence taken ha ha ha I have a few vids if i figure how to post them on here.
