To get more power you'll need better exchaust, jet kit and high-airflow aircleaner. Supertrapp is fine, Jet-kits can be acquired from Dynojet and aircleaners are sold everywhere. Just call your dealer that tunes-up bikes and ask for tune-up. Costs are minimal, jet kit is about 69 $ and aircleaner even cheaper. Supertrapp is a another thing...thats expensive...
Or... have you tried to adjust your carburettor? Needle can be adjusted to get more gas and idle mixture screw can also be tampered, but you'll need better exchaust anyway to get the most out of these settings... Jardine, Laser, Hartman mods... Ever stock aircleaner can be made to give better airflow...
Just read the messages below to know how...
Third options is to buy already more powerfull bike, Intruder 800 or 1400. (You can tune-up these babes too by the way...)
