    Consider a Yoshimura before you buy anything. I found the Hindle to be annoying while riding and the Yoshi gives a good throaty sound, better performance and won't overwhelm. Mine is carbon fiber and...

    I'd be interested in knowing if you ever go into limp mode on rough streets. I was able to trigger it (prior to the DPS update) on a regular basis by hitting a series of raised man hole covers in my...

    Raptor did a good job explaining the "feel" of the new DPS. I've had mine about 3-4 weeks now and have put on around 350 miles on both one longer and a series of short rides to work. After realizing...

    I've done mine and put on about 80 miles so far. The steering is clearly different - easier and even a bit loose feeling compared to the old setup. It feels more responsive at all speeds and I don't...

    I'd be very careful about just replacing relays. Relays are somewhat like fuses when it comes to specifying the rating on the contacts. The relay itself is just part of a circuit which includes the...

    Anyone still riding 1/17 or 1/18?

    I'm in town and it looks like the weather is going to be great tomorrow. Anyone out riding in San Antonio? Did the group ride end up with any plans?

    I just did this and it isn't nearly as awful as it seemed. If you remove the 7 torx screws (t8?) from under the seat pan (above the wheel) then you'll find that the entire experience isn't bad at...

    So... I'm slow... Is this a 3M carbon fiber vinyl or did you do something else? I'd sure like to do my bars. How did you get such a clean installation?

    [QUOTE=BajaRon;162244]I've got a carbon fiber Yoshimura from NMN that I like. It's my 3rd or 4th muffler and I like it the best. It has a quiet core that helps, sound is good and I like the look.
