The best modification is to replace the muffler bearings to ceramic ones and go to a red power band.  I read on the internte that it is worth 15 bhp.

Good luck.

You forgot to mention that you need a Left-Handed Metric Crescent Wrench, an Aluminum magnetizer, and some Maiden Oil for changing those!

Didn't Kawasaki pull out of AMA racing because those modifications are now illegal?

That only makes the Kawasaki appear faster due to the almost backwards progression of the Yamaha...

Ha! You people are quite something.
I'll have you know that I broke 2 track records this year on my 09 Kawasaki ZX6R.

Anyways, to answer your question....
The jumper wire trick worked very well from 05-08 models. You could see gains of 6-7hp with that mod. 
The 09 model was worth only 1-2 HP.
Send me a PM and I'll help you out.

Anybody else got a Kawi question?
Kawasaki also builds trains, planes, helicopters, ships, and yes even the farm equipment.  :boink:

Oh relax, quit taking your internet persona so seriously!  I have no interest in an internet "flaming" session, so I apologize for offending you in any way whatsoever, lets leave it at that.
