Bought the HMF exhaust

[Tierhog]

It begs the question though... What magic does the hindle possess that others do not? If you have a less restrictive exhaust and everything else is OEM without a programmer, what's the difference between HMF and hindle? Same restrictive intake remember....

Could someone recommend if it is a good idea to rejet the carburetor if the exhaust is exchanged for after market? I had a bit of a mishap with the bike and needed a new pipe. Bought the TwoBrothers slip on and installed it. No issues per say, but I do notice when gearing down, it coughs and reves a bit. I also noticed that gas consumption is not as good as it was before. The bike is a month old and I just want to make sure I am not causing any damage without rejeting it. Thanks in advance

The spyder does not have a carburetor. It is fuel injected. You may need a fuel management system. An O2 modifier, juicebox pro, power commander, etc. Two Brothers sells the JB Pro.

Thanks very much for the explanation. I will look into it. -JT

Good luck finding an o2 modifier lol. Interested in how your Spyder is acting though...

HINDLE VS. OTHERS

could be that the hindle is a little more restrictive than the others, providing less of a lean condition. my system runs different according to how much i restrict the sound (with packing) in the outlet tube. i have it relatively quiet right now, and it seems to have slightly less power. either way it always runs good:thumbup:

Holy cow... Gasket completely gone!

 

[Tierhog]

Holy smokes! Both are gone at 10k! WTH?

If those are original gaskets, they were probably gone at 8k...................

 

[Tierhog]

Alright there was a small chunk in there but just a sliver... One done

 

[Tierhog]

Number two.

 

[Tierhog]

All done... That wasn't so bad

Nah, it's easier than some other maintanence items. You replaced them with Honda gaskets, right?

 

[Tierhog]

Yep... Much better

 

[Tierhog]

Mercy.. I bolted that thing on and holy cow! Insane... Sounds like a Harley dragster without the loping!

Did you end up getting hmf optimizer? And did you use Honda Goldwing Gaskets?
