Ok, so I have decided I am going to order the Yosh slip-ons. Now the question is, do I go with a factory jet kit, or a dynojet jet kit? Does the exhaust manufacturer recommend one or the other?

 

I can't speak on the DynaJet kit, but i have been very pleased with my Factoy Pro TI kit. I tried the 50 pilots (stock is 45) jet that came with my kit and ended up ordering 48 pilot jets from my Honda dealer as well as putting the other emulsion tube in as Factory reccommend.

Be prepared to tinker with which ever kit you get. I had to make three adjustment (yes three times pulling the tank) before i got mine right. Some people give the K&N filters and jet kits a bad rap, but my opinon is the either didn't take time to fine tune them or didn't have the mechanical skill to be doing the jet kit in the first place.

PM me if you want more info on how i fine tuned mine.....

 

I trust my mechanic's input on such matters, so I believe him when he says that Factory Pro jets are not only easier to install (because they use standard--not proprietary--jet sizes) but also easier to tune than DynaJet jet kits are, especially if you later add race cams and what-not. And, contrary to the bad rumours circulating, you _do not_ need to drill the sliders during installation of the Factory Pro kit for the VTR (that only applies to race bike kits--the high-end kits).

In contrast, DynaJet jet kits have proprietary jet sizes and can thus sometimes be, as Andre`--my mechanic--states, "a pain in the ***" for the mechanic. In short, they might just cost you a little more in labor charges at installation, especially if you are having the bike Dyno-tuned, to remove "saddle bags" in the hp/torque curve.

cheers,
