Deal! Yea i love this bike man. Put 500 miles on it since fri. With replacin gthe udder...wont you lose some midrange due to loss of back pressure? Would you also have to reprogram the ecu to adjust for it being to lean? Yea I will have to post in desmohio soon...
Yeah, if you replace the midpipe you will give more outflow, so yes.....it will make the bike leaner.
Also, if you put new cans on.......it will due the same thing.
I'd wait to do them both at the same time and then get yourself a PCIII
and then take your bike up to JD Hord (
www.hordpower.com). He is located in Bucyrus, an hour north on 23.
He has a dyno in his garage (he is an indy mechanic that is damn make the beast with two backsing good. When Larry Pegram needed help punching out a 749 motor to the 848.........he took it to JD as he has done it many times before) and his labor rate is 40$ an hour.
I recommend all your service be done by JD. A bunch of us use him and he is a cool guy to boot. He is a former battle of the twins champion; he raced night hawks after he got sick of being a commodities broker in Chicago.......
He does all the major service on my bikes and I couldn't be more pleased with his shop rates and most importantly........the quality of work. He won't fix anything that doesn't need to be fixed.
He also bills to the 1/4 hour, which is nice.
Just beware that he tunes bikes on his dyno like a race bike...........it will suck fuel like a mofo.
