Yeah, you are probably right.
But hey, I can get through that turn at the lights (5000 probably in
first) before the oncoming traffic reaches me :-)
Maybe it is my wallet talking - but she just 'feels' more responsive
with the less restrictive filters on, but you are probably right, maybe
this is me just getting some better value out of the ported head and
extractors and the 'normal' driving, 'standard' motor probably might
even like the 'standard' filters more.
Still..... hmmmmm... the Pipercross filters LOOK prettier!
