I have aftermarket on there now I was wondering if the stock is better and should I hook the valve up? help please

old man roger

in my opinion they run best and pull the hardest on idle with the stock exhaust and the valve hooked up

+1..... " a stock bike is a happy reliable bike", but if you want sound then do w/e it aint like your on the track and need every bit of HP and back pressure from your stock can

i love my stock exhaust, pulls like a train . I wont even put a pipe on it

old man roger

back pressure = low end torque and the more the better for stunting

haha...no wonder i have to give a more gas now....i took out all my packing and cut it to a shorty, its a full system Hindle...

old man roger

shouldnt be as much of a problem for your v twin , those things got torque for days

Yamaha412

oh yes i agree 100% with you, but the little you lose from the removal wont make or brake a wheelie, and yes back pressure is good for low end grunt...not everyone realizes that and goes with noise and volume.... but o well.... i personally stay with stock not only for the torque and what not but also to keep the attention away that the aftermarket pipes tend to bring when in a lot or back road... ( stay stock you wont regret it)

i love my stocker exhaust cuz its so quiet!!! mine is not hooked up either but i'm gunna be trying the hotbodies exshaust soon so sick http://store.58cycle.com/product_p/h...20636%2005.htm

big ben

huh yea....but i havent stunted a 4 cylinder b4 so i cant really compare.......so is that y stock gearing aint a problem for me?

old man roger

yep quiet exhaust keeps spots

when you get an inline 4 cylinder bike you will need to adjust your riding a little bit , you can still run stock gear on an inline 4 but it's more fun with some gear

big ben

how much more choppy is gearing?

old man roger

not at all once you have good throttle control , i mean yes it's more responsive obviously but when you get used to it it's better

Yamaha412

its not so much choppy....just more effortless

Thats what I thought I just got some stock exhaust last night and I going to give it a try. The bike came with the aftermarket on it.

Stock on the stunter, Two Brothers on the Street Killer.

*trix*

I was running stock till I broke my subframe 2 times in a row after accidental (like blips of throttle and hit the exhaust moderately hard and I slammed the brake to bring it back down) scrapes then I realized that the exhaust was contributing to the breaking of it sooo I put a yosh slip on and I think theres a little less tourqe but I run a 60tooth and it really doesnt seem like to much of a difference to me and when I hit the slipon it just kinda wiggles around rather then putting the whole impact through my subframe
