Not much you can do considering weight and preference on roll ons on freeway! You may want to suggest -1 in the front sprocket and adding a tooth in the back if he was racing from a dead stop

On a serious note I'd suggest a lot of cardio workout and a nutritionist approved dieting.

If doing roll-ons, he's more for top speed riding. Either +1 in the front or -2 to -3 in the back. That will give him a little more top end but it will hurt acceleration.
On another note, the best ting he can do to impact his bike's performance is slim down. Is he a tall guy or a short guy? If he's tall and big it will REALLY hurt the performance of the bike because he's not able to tuck much out of the wind.

320lbs huhh.. Straight up!.. Don't use the 1k... A Busa he may not be interested in but it'll work a lot better because of the torque and comfort! Trade it for the Busa unless he's going to get down to "atleast" 250lbs... Yeah that's another 70lbs away which aint gonna be easy so just start look'n the Busa over. You can't beat its versatility..
