I still need to find an O2 sensor, anyone know where you can buy them?

EDIT: Besides Micron they're super backed up on like everything :P

Oh yeah, I ended up getting the micron blue fade silver pipe.

Can someone answer why I need an 02 sensor for the pipe anyways?  I know it might be a lame question but ya know it's worth asking :P

O2 sensor tells the computer if the engine is running lean/rich so it can make changes in the fueling.  If your bike does not have one stock, you just need to get a plug for the port.

Use the stock O2 sensor. 

As an alternative, you could buy dynojet O2 sensor eliminator for 15 bucks.  They recommend one of those if you are going to use a PCIII

Hey Zultan do you have any high quality sound clips of your new exhaust? Idle, revving, and fly bys I'm looking for. I'm still debating if I want the silver/blue or blue/black for my bike and I want to hear how it sounds before I order it. I want something that sounds like an indy car not a Harley.

Mike

O2 sensor only tells ECU to lean out to save gas during constant cruising on the bike. when you hammer it, it goes to a set map.
O2 sensor eliminator prevents this...so your bike never leans it when you're just cruising with minimal load on the motor. again, when you hammer it, it goes to the set map.
you have nothing to gain with an O2 eliminator, but MPG to lose.
you don't NEED a new O2 sensor with a dynojet and they don't suggest an O2 sensor, but an O2 eliminator, which you do not need either!
