Yes you can
But any increase in power will of course reduce lifetime. The two are connected.
The easy things are:
- Increase air flow. Put in a good airfilter and / or open up the airbox. You'll be amazed by the increas in power by just instaling a K&N filter. However, thse things do not really filter so only suited for on-road use. A large washable foamfilter is best, but will require modifications to the airbox.
- Exhaust. Size matters. Get the biggest can you can find. It will be a bit noisier, but not that much. Laser duotech works well on a XT600.
And then of course there is lots of other things you can do to increase torque, but it gets specialistic and even more expesnive then the above.
