Flapper Mod

  

mtm -> Flapper Mod (9/21/2006 5:11:18 PM)

I have a 2004 1000rr , did the flapper mod yesterday . I am not planning any other mods until winter, due to funds will this mod be alright by itself?

Was the first mod i did and didn't have any neg affects. Would think you'll be fine considering its really there mostly for noise anyway.

mtm -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/21/2006 6:26:27 PM)

Thanks for the input . By the way how do you like the Yosh.

FATHEADS1KRR -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/22/2006 12:46:43 PM)

I'm diggin it !! Have heard some good/bad about it, but for what i paid for it, (240) i'd say bang for the buck wise, its the poo. Fit nice, and had some pretty good instuction w/it, which some of the others don't have. Nice lookin can too, i think. I'm sure there is better out there, but i have gotten some compliments on it at bike nights. Was lookin at the arata too, but its more than twice the price of the yosh. Maybe when i toast it i'll upgrade !!

I'm trying to decide between the Yosh or the Jardine RT-One dual outlet carbon fiber slip-on.

baxsom -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/22/2006 6:54:43 PM)

if those are your only two options go with the jardine

yosh just isnt the pipe for these bike

5hp increase is the norm


blade17fire -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/22/2006 9:34:38 PM)

yup..yosh won't give u the amount of power like akra, sato and arata will give..If you've got the cash get either 1 of these pipes.. I've gain only 4 hp with PC III using a yosh slip-on..you do the mathematics...

Remove the flapper..cut the fins in the air duct..remove the PAIR valve..remove the exhaust catalyser..remove the exhaust valve(if you got the slip-on)..PC III..BMC air filter and u will be surprise at the power gained without installing the full system..[:D]

Wasn't sayin its the best "i'm sure there is better" but from a bang for the buck standpoint, its a good choice, i think. For what i paid for it, i have done all the other mods listed, and a fe kit, and nice no-cut frame slides on the way, and STILL have $$ left compaired to buying a arata/sato. Like e/thing else in life it has its good and bad points. If hp was my main concern, i wouldn't have purchased the honda either !!

mtm -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/23/2006 2:21:04 PM)

What type of no cut frame sliders are you going to use?

baxsom -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/23/2006 8:08:53 PM)

take a stock exhaust, punch out the baffles,
do the flapper mod and get a good tune with a PC3 and it will equal that of a yosh pipe and then the only exhaust you had to pay for is the 1" drill bit and extension used to punch the stock
i punched out my exhaust and it sounded at least as good as every yosh i have heard
the bike doesnt need a pipe to begin with but if you are going to get one
get one that works

dont settle on substandard parts just so you can say i have a pipe



FATHEADS1KRR -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/25/2006 1:16:48 PM)

Ordered the motovation sliders. Was gonna go w/the shoguns till i read about em bending into the engine, even at low/no speed. E/one is out of stock of em right now, but sposed to have more by the mid of this week.

menefreghista -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/26/2006 4:40:04 AM)

good choice on MotoVation ... i bet i know someone who has them in stock for less than what you might think

FATHEADS1KRR -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/26/2006 9:34:40 AM)

Who dat ??

mtm -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/26/2006 5:15:02 PM)

Again thank you for the information on the frame sliders I will check them out .

FATHEADS1KRR -> RE: Flapper Mod (9/27/2006 11:07:07 AM)

No problem. They are sposed to be showing up early next week. Can give you an update then if you want. Hopefully, I'll never have the opportunity to tell you how they work tho !!
