For sure! The bulk of the improvement of the bike’s performance that I’ve experienced has been in the mid-range pull of the bike. It has a little more top speed, but not a lot. Where it really feels a lot better is accelerating out of corners and being able to maintain speed on a grade. And that’s without any noticeable loss of power right off the bottom end.
A person should definitely keep their expectations realistic. If you’re after more top end power, a different and more aggressive cam profile would be in order. Even then, it’s a pushrod 250 (or 229 if it’s still got the stock cylinder) with only two valves. it’s got its practical limits.
