The airbox is very restrictive. Once you cut the top open on the airbox the air can flow through very well. Only thing is you then hear the intake. I love it personally. It's a big woooosh.
The flywheel you currently have can be lightened for about $75, if you do the install.
The vented cover is really a matter of personal choice. I have a polished Aluminum one with the Ducati flying D. Just be warned that they are loud.
A lightened clutch is expensize. Live this to last.
The drop in high compression pistons are the best bang for buck for performance. It will cost you about $800 with the pistons.
I'll let you know about the next ride we do with the Ducs
