SWEET!!!!

Thanks for all the help fellas. My dumb @ss didn't remove the bolts on either side of the tank. [:@]

So my PC and my Yosh exhaust are hooked up. Everyone told me that I would see a noticable difference, but I never expected this!! It's a HUGE difference between stock and waht I have now. I'm running an Arapovic slip on map since they don't make one for the Yosh, but it still runs like a champ.

I plan on running the current map for a week or so before I try the Two Bros slip on map. I want to get some seat time on both and then start tweeking it to my preferences. Since I don't plan on racing, paying $200 for a dyno is rediculous.

Thanks for the help fellas. I'll post some pics as soon as I get her cleaned up and bathed.

Thats great news!

I looked at the difference between the two maps you are thinking of using. The Two Bro. map is way leaner, so try it to see how it feels, but it seems on the lean side to me.

I noticed that right away too. We'll see which one runs better in a few weeks.

Check out the pics though. The fender eliminator kit really sets her off too. SWEET!!!

The stock exhuast would sound good around 7,000-8,000 RPMs. It had a pretty nice, deep rumble to it, but the Yoshimura has a better sound throughout the entire RPM range. The Yosh has a semi-deep tone, but with a little raspyness to it. If that makes any sense. It is pretty loud though, but not to the point where it's waking your neigbors up first thing in the morning (unless you really want to. ) It definatly sounds like a race bike coming down the street now.

The installation was a bit of a pain in the @ss only because of all the work it takes to remove the rear cowling. It's not difficult, just time consuming due to all the screws you have to take out ... and keep track of ... and not lose. [:@] It was more of a pain for me because I also installed my power commander and fender eliminator kit at the same time. So I have crap everywhere!! If I had to give it a time frame, I would say it would take no more than a few hours if you've never done it before and no more than and hour or so if you know what exactly your doing.

thanks for the compliments though fellas!
