I think the joints are tight enough, and held by springs and clamps properly. But ofcourse since it is a metal to metal fit, there may be leaking gaps. I will have to check carefully for leaks there.
I need to remove the pipes for service, so that these guys here don't screw my warranty!

Ok, so, your warranty is voided if they see the exhaust YOU installed? Do they enforce such tight restrictions? Someday from you will get tired of installing/un-installing those pipes and you will ride the bike like it is right now; or, one of the guys at the dealership will see the bike with exhausts.

I live in Tamilnadu, South India > OK, please, ride the bike checking your temperature, if it runs within range, then the ECU is adjusting accordingly; then if you want, just to test, install the K&N filter, remember, DO NOT use octane boosters that are not O2 sensor safe, this, just in case you are planning or using octane booster or any other fuel additive, even better, stop using them.

If when you install the K&N filter, you see that the temperature stays in the upper range and popping is constant, revert to your OEM filter. This means the ECU is not able to adjust for the extra amount of air coming in.

If I am wrong in something, please, someone chime in . . .

What would happen if octane booster that is not O2 sensor safe were used? I was going to buy octane booster and carry it on my next ride, just in case I can only find regular gas (89 octane). Does it say "O2 sensor safe" on the packaging/bottle?

bob795,

it has to say "Oxygen sensor safe" . ..  if not, you might damage the O2 sensor

I really love the pipes. They look great and sound fantastic! all heads turn my way when I ride. And when I decelerate and stop, to meet a group of friends or for a traffic light, it is pure adrenaline! The whoorrrrrmm and decal pops - you have to ride it to believe it!
