    I bought a "basket case" Triumph X-75 and 3rd gear was out (among many other things). It had a good clear title and after several years it came together. Won several trophies and it was finally sold (too cheap) to Baxter Cycle. Lots of help from Engle Motors

    You are comparing a Mahindra to the real thing. There is no comparison. The borrowed BSA tank badges do not produce a conversion, nor do the video clips that show the Mahindra waddling through very gentle bends. I will take my cue from this comparison. I will paint RAF roundels on my Cessna 170 and claim that it is a Spitfire.

    I have just done a ecu flash and added power commander with auto tune. Have to disagree with the Dyno man. Autotune will update your map for the riding conditions you are in all the time versus the Dyno is optimized only for one set of conditions. I do have Dyno maps for the ecu and pc to get the bike into a useable map quickly and then auto tune keeps adjusting.

    16T front pinion gear is the cheapest and most noticible improvement you can do to this bike. Second biggest improvement, at a fairly cheap cost is the TEC cam. If you need anything more, buy another bike. Seriously.
