Which jets are you using in the Mikuni?
Does the muffler create much back-pressure? Perhaps there's some power hiding in there.
Are you interested in "adding lightening?" If you have steel rims, they could be replaced with aluminum, holes could be drilled in gussets, etc. Are the bars aluminum?
Are you running light oil? Maybe 10W40 synthetic would free up power.
Interested in a performance CDI? That could improve spark advance.
Any thoughts on mild porting and polishing?
110 main in the mikuni, bars are Al, using synthetic oil and did a port job on the intake and exhausts. I took about 15# off the frame when I did the original conversion, stripping off un-needed brackets etc.
The CDI might yield something, I think the exhaust might be worth a little bit too. I really need to find a skinny little 5'-2" girl to ride it versus my 190# fat ass.
