it depends on what you want out of it.
Do you want more low end torque?
If so then I would look into a hauck racing clutch modification, or an EPI clutch kit

If you want more top end power then I would get a slip on exhaust, jet kit, and K&N filter.

I guess I'm looking for more top end power. I'm looking for a new hobby and I thought tinkering with this bike would be fun and interesting. My buddies have bigger utility quads and i want to be able to keep up. Thanks for the quick reponse. How hard is it to jet in particular if I wanted to do it myself, with limited experience.

With the jet kit it is not too bad. All I did when I installed my filter, and pipe, and jet kit was replace the main jet and the pilot jet.

I went up to a 136 on the main and replaced the pilot with the one provided by dynojet.

All you need to do the jet kit is a set of metric allen head keys to loosen the clamps for the carb and on mine I just twisted the carb 90 degrees so that I could pull the float bowl off(4 phillips screws) and remove the two jets(both slotted screwdrivers).

Takes about 10 min to do it.

Other than that I would contact Hauck racing and talk to them about having your clutch machined for a little more top end speed.
