Slip-on with no fuel mods??? - 11/1/2007 12:44:26 PM    jwelch Posts: 50 Joined: 4/14/2007 Status: offline I am looking to get a slip-on, and need to here other opinions on fuel manegment. The shop says I can put a slip-on without re-mapping, or getting an adjustable fuel monitor. Every bike I have ever owned I have had to re-jet, or similar, when I installed a pipe. Any opinions??     05' CBR 600RR... _____________________________ Think about What not How, What not How Post #: 1

Im still pretty happy with stock. I am not sure if it is running a good as possible. Dont get me wrong. The few times I get twist a couple gears in a row she screams! pulls like hell. I think putting on a slip on pipe has to be 95%sound 5% perf. Am I wrong? I am looking at some mellow pipes. Has anyone had Scorpion. I saw it and heard it. Seemed nice. A diff look. It sounded tuff. Not annoying. Any info Thank You! _____________________________ TALK IS CHEAP! (in reply to flatlander) Post #: 7

First time out it was comming up off the throttle in 2nd. Never did that stock. (80-85f) Then after less than 50 miles of city driving, it couldn't quit lift the front in second. It also strated sounding really funk in the point where your not no the gas but not off either. The power commander with the genric Leo map fixed most of that. I'm going to get mine dynoed after Chritmas.  I've read a custom map smooths out the highs & lows brought about by each bikes individuale traits. Trans gear lash, built on a Monday, ect.  I'm sold on the concept because of the way the generic Leo map soomthed out a lot of the torque spike my stock map had that was making it hard to get the bike up into a high angle to ride it further on the rear meat. All that probably didn't help much so how's this? SPEND WISELY. It's an expensive hobby. If not? Then you pay with the time you steal away for it. Either way we all have to pay to see the show. < Message edited by flatlander -- 12/1/2007 3:01:32 PM > (in reply to Hatebreed) Post #: 10

I had a full exhaust (not just a slip on) for a long time and the bike ran just fine. _____________________________ -03 CBR 954RR .Full Erion Ehaust .K&N Filter .-1/+2 .Barnett heavy duty clutch springs .PCIII -65 El Camino 14:1 CR 700 RWHP -90 Toyota Pickup 4x4 SAS (in reply to flatlander) Post #: 11
