Hey guys
I've been reading through the altitude gain - power loss thread and wanted to ask you a couple of questions re: my SV.
I've been thinking of getting it jetted and dyno'd to correct for the Jardine slip-on I have and the power loss at altitude, but reading through the thread, I'm now not 100% sure if it's worth doing. (But then again, maybe I'm just dense and all that talk of Ram-Air and physics confused me ).
I'm not going to be racing the bike, so mostly it will be riding around Colorado, "Hoopty's Military School of Wheelies" , maybe 10 or so track outings and some roadtrips, some of which will get close to sea-level.
With that in mind, my question is, is it worth rejetting, or will doing so at altitude mess me up for when I'm closer to sea level? Should I bin the jetting idea and look at changing sprocket size up/down? Or combine the two??
I'd like to get as much out of the bike as I can with my current limited budget... and being a complete novice in the "ninja art" of bike tuning , advice, comments and even raucous laughter will be much appreciated....
Thanks
Hanna
