Looks great. Did you lower the front end also?
It is snowing here so I look at those sunny, summer like pictures and just feel like moving back south so I could ride everyday.
Take care,

Wow. Nice single-sided exhaust. Makes the rear-end look lighter.

Even with high-mounts, it adds a lot of visual-weight to the rear. It's not just my fat-*** on the bike.

You haven't touched the rear suspension besides the spacers?

That's because the rider weighs 235 with no gear. :O

IIRC, the rear was at 22-23psi, as per Michelin's recommendation...

Right. Pilot Race. I couldn't believe the tire guy when he said run 'em at 18 psi.

That guy was wrong. Should be 22-23 psi cold. Closer to 26-27 hot.

Right. I went with 22, which is what I had heard from other forums. I just couldn't believe the tire guy wanted me to set 'em at 18.

I'm sorry, but I don't like that pipe. I think you're going to loose power becaue it's too restrictive.

Why do you think Honda produces it with two canisters????

it's a BIG V-TWIN. It needs to breath.

i believe you are mistaken. the midpipe is 2" ID which is thicker than stock, but it does shoot hard puffs of air out the rear.....i also have a few questions about my jetting. btw i spent a whole 60 bucks on the setup so i dont care.

The little canister you have set up will not allow the exhaust of both cylinders to exit fast enough.
I actually think stock would be less restrictive.

Even if the inside dia. was 10 inches it still gets bottle necked at the can.

I think you wasted 60 bucks.

well i destroyed the stock cans by experimenting, and the bike is fast enough to beat a race spec buell xb12r, and stay right next to a zx-10r all the way to 10k...thanks for your input, rob.

Cool Thanks
That is a great rear fender fix until I can afford an under tail.
Looks good.

The wheels look great, did you have them done or sand and buff out the parts of it yourself? ( I'm thinking of stealing the look of your wheels for my Hawk...)

I think your 2 into 1 pipe looks great !
Nice job!

For those doubters the only way to tell if there is a power loss is to dyno it & check the results.
Watch for another dyno run special at Al Lamb's Dallas Honda.
They do 1/2 price runs sometimes. Just sign up on their mailing list.

Jim Sabin has a $30 special on Dyno runs right now!
Just found out when looking for his web site to post the link for you.
I need to do one on the 600RR - that's a cheap dyno run!
He's at I35 & Walnut Hill.
http://sabinperformance.com
He's a good guy & former CMRA racer.
Has helped me with both my old Superhawk & new 600RR

IT would be interesting to see your results.
Bet it's very close to the same as with 2 cans.
