I read and re-read his articles on a regular basis when thinking about a tuning issue (as I do Bikeboy and JD Hord's). That, and re-reading threads here. It stimulates my thinking on tuning solutions which seems to be much of what I do lately.

I have a question..I've recently brought a 696+ 2009 and the left hand standard end can twists ever so slightly on the 'y' pipe join.. is this a problem? Also when I start it up there is moisture being blown out of this join until the bike is warm. Should I put a sealant around the inside of the joint?

I wouldn't care much. If it tightens up when warm....

Of course - the best advice is to buy a pair of slip ons  [thumbsup]

My 796 did the same thing...  no problems.  Stop is correct, however... slip-ons fix everthing...   [laugh]
