Hi just purchased my 500 s 0.9 85bhp twinair yesterday and haven't really tested it fully yet - road trip in July to take it from Manchester to Belfast should be a great tester - have wanted one for years and now I have

Happy to learn anything I need to know about the 500 including customizing and add-ons - the good, the bad and the ugly.

I have had my 500s for just over a week, just under 2 years old with 11k on the clock.
I have fitted a K&N it has a noticeable difference in sound and get up and go.
I think the next step will be a quantum remap to iron out all of the flat spots plus push the bhp to 120.

Forgot to mention my 500s is the slightly more powerful model with the sport button.
Haven't had this much fun in years.
Handling is interesting, tyres stick like"s??t to a blanket" which gives you the confidence to go quicker.
