so is this just put on and go or is there some fuel injectio nadjustment?Low end mid range top end? Issues? I am a flogger, in other words I bounce of the rev limiter all the time in gears 1 thru 6, so is this a true bolt on or do we have to screw with it?PC3 or anything?

I was looking into different options on power commanders, etc, but in talking to the tech at the shop, he convinced me to run it by and let him "mess with it".  Whatever he did worked well.  Keep in mind, though, that my S2R800 wasn't and still isn't a real fireball.  But the rumble leads not Ducsters to believe otherwise.  I don't lie, but they can think what they want.  My general answer to the neverending question is, "It's faster then it needs to be."

Sounds like you need a Gixxer.

Hell, I had more trouble getting my old Termis to fit.  When Mark was finished with mine, they fit perfectly.  The custom tips he made for me stacked with only a 1/4 inch of gap and sit within 1 inch of the back wheel.  How he made them fit as well as he did without my bike is beyond me.


Here nor there, though.  Waiting for or fight fitment issues is frustrating, no matter what part it is. 
Mine still don't fit right even after I sent them back rear header hits the swinger but after the long wait I thought I would just deal with it. Almost no room between the swinger and the exhaust can't even fit my pinky in there and I have small carni hands  [moto].

Crap vid I made when I first got them notice the O2 bung which Mark was so kind as to fix for me after I posted this video and if you look closely you can see where the rear exhaust has been rubbing near the spring tab. Pretty sure its due to the front pipe being slightly longer than it needs to be eventually I will cut it down slightly for a better fit but other wise they are sweet. And I thought that when Mark was telling someone on here about the sound characteristics and why he chose a certain type of steal over others was BS. I couldn't have been more wrong, dude was on the money, they certainly do have a particular "ping" to them for sure.
