Just wanted to give a quick V and H update. I was supposed to pick up the Spyder tomorrow, but they needed to order a different power commander, which is fine because with my work/travel schedule the next few weeks I wouldn't have any time to ryde. So I told them to keep the spyder and keep testing. Should have some news and hopefully a pic by mid-July.

Thanks for the update. Was there an issue with the original PC they had, or is there an updated version they are planning to use with their exhaust instead? This is making me glad I waited on getting a JB Pro or anything, as if V&H are going to have a map to go along with the exhaust and the PC it could be a really good thing. :thumbup:

Not sure--they explained in an e-mail that the pc they had wasn't working correctly, and they have a new one coming in to work with.

Just found this thread! Oh man, I so miss the breathy, throaty, Barry White rumble on my Springer's V&H Shortshots!

:bowdown: Thank you mdr for pioneering the way! :yes::2excited:

I wonder why they don't use their own fuel-pak.
if they decided to produce muffler for spyder, wouldn't they offer fuel-pak too?
Also, if they make throttle-pak for RT, that would be great.

What exhaust

I have TB dual carbon fiber.. They are awesome loud growl... No db silencer I wear ear plugs!!! I'm a member of a LE MC and the two riders love the sound of my spyder!

Perhaps they are going to partner with PC for the fuel pack? :dontknow: I know when I ran a V&H on my GSX-R 750 the only decent option at the time was Dynajet Kits. Things have changed a ton since 1986, but sometimes it is still easier to partner with someone that to create something from scratch.

Me too HMF is good price

Fuelpak and throttlepak are both made by V&H, all in-house designed and manufactured by themselves so buying pc for spyder doesn't make sence to me. may be V&H does not feel market is big enough for it, for their time and effort.:dontknow:

That could very well be, as when I first sent them an email asking if they were going to make an exhaust for the Spyder they were quick with a reply saying no. That was nearly a year ago, and now they are making one so who knows what else will eventually change. :thumbup:

Exhaust question

Forgive my ignorance, but as a brand spanking new 2011 RT-S owner I really don't know the answer to this question: Does putting an aftermarket exhaust system on your machine affect your warranty at all? Do you need to reprogram anything in the electronics?
Thanks,

Short of putting the Harley V-Twin in your Spyder you will never get that sound. There are some awesome sounding alternatives, but as others have said, the bore/stroke combination is completely different and won't produce that sound no matter how hard you try.

An aftermarket exhaust will not void your warranty. The ECM can compensate for the free flowing exhaust without a problem, but when you start doing other things like free flow air filters and such it may not be able to keep up. That is when people start using the Power Commander or Juice Box set ups. The only issue you have with your RT is the choices are quite a bit more limited than they are for those of us with the RS.

Watch you don't run afoul of new noise laws - non-stock exhaust is a major ticket on the left coast….

V and H

I picked up my Spyder from V and H today. They had it for about a month, which was fine because I have been traveling out of state and wasn't able to ryde. Unfortunately they weren't willing to let me keep or post a picture of the prototype on the Spyder--bummer. However, they did let me see a picture of their pipe on a Spyder and I can tell you that it looks really good. It's a single pipe that flows with the lines of the Spyder. Production should start in Sept./Oct., and as soon as the first one is ready I'll ride over, they will put it on, and I'll post pics. I sent an e-mail to the tech and hopefully he will share the dyno results with me. I rode a Harley before buying the Spyder, and I'm looking forward to seeing and hearing the final product!

Of course Spydee does not have "potato. potato, potato" in her vocabulary. Never will. Its the nature of the beast. Running Two Bros. Duals right now. They are close, but no cigar.

So is it a two into one? opcorn:
