Oh wait, he is THE distributor for that exhaust?

Supposably its been backed by the dyno, so who knows, it looks good and is louder then my stocker, that's all I care about

The latest issue of Motorycylist they bolted an FMF slip on to their 1125CR. It got 5 hp thru out the range. It comes with a baffle for street Db levels if you want quiet. Still a pricey peice.

On the plus side i scored a set of Contisport Attacks for 254 shipped.

Tree + rope + old tire = swing. Trust me, it works.

They do. There's a rally at the Gap...it's April this year. And the annual Homecoming in June...which is in East Troy.

cool. Wonder if their are cool roads near E. Troy? I'd like to see EBR in person.

The FMF pipe? Well styling hasnt struck me on any of the pipes. The Barker looks good, the side mount FMF and Jardine are just kinda tacked on like an after thought. The bottom line is no one will see it long enough to form an opinion as I strafe by, but sound and weight reduction will be my priorities...
