    Something changed

    When you fitted the ramair, where did you place the Air Intake Sensor?...This measures the temperature of the air entering the throttle bodies and if put in another location, like on top of the motor where the air is a lot hotter, will affect how the bike runs. It needs to be near the ramair...

    Noob tire size question

    I can recommend the Bridgestone Xedra Max...it will lift the bike 12mm (I/2 an inch)...it wears well and is cheaper. Lifting the rear of the bike obviously will help the front to steer in better. No changes to rims or anything else is needed...
