Why would you need to modify an M3? |
You've never changed the sprockets or gearing on your crotch rocket? Oil catch can? Frame sliders? Air filters? Puig double bubble windscreen? Different rubber/fluids? Shorty levers? Not much out there faster than a sport bike but we still modify those too...
You just do, I guess... I can't tell you last two or four wheel vehicle I've left unmolested... It just makes it more your own I suppose... |
I'm a moto guy too. Mostly off road though. I modify and add parts to all my bikes. It is almost a must. Even with my "ready to race" KTM's. I spent 2k on my brand new KTM 1090R adventure bike before it even left the dealership lol. . I'm 61 and have modified every performance car I have ever owned. Until my most recent 2018 M3 CS. This car is perfect (IMO) in both performance setup and appearance. I will not be doing a single thing to it. Refreshing for me to be honest. Now if I was more concerned with a daily and comfort than I was all out performance the M340 with a tune would be better. IMO. |

I'm of the same mantra; I'll mildly modify bikes I "now" leave cars stock. Tires, rims at best.
My buddy is a die hard Ktm guy; has a 2013 RC8 just picked up 2019 KTM 1290 Superduke GT
hope to pick up a 2015 r 1200 gs low miles this season
