      Best upgrade is to trade it for a 750.

      After that, an ignition advancer and freer flowing exhaust can give you a bit more grunt. Other than that, you're hitting up against the limits of easy, bolt-on enhancements. You can do quite a bit if you're interested in completely changing the nature of the engine, swapping out the engine for something bigger or just moving to a faster bike. The Kat 600 isn't a particularly fast bike compared to a modern super-sport so comparing it to one of those, it'll always come up short. Enjoy it for the comfortable, do-everything bike it is or sell it and move to something that was designed to be faster.

        Fixed.
        90% of motorcycle forum members do not have a service manual for their bike.
