Did you get your warranty voided by putting those mufflers on or was it the other way around?

Hey ol buddy, been getting some riding in since the lil dry couple days?
Anyways, bikes probably vary somewhat, but in the beginning, first thing I did was put on twin slash mufflers. Ran ok I guess, but more of a "pig". Installed a FP3, and just kept getting better, better, better for the next couple hundred miles. Nice diff in performance. Then finally landed with shorts/with TTI, ventilator. It's only a 107, but it R I P S ! ! ! No kidding.

Finally some riding, yes.
I just finished installing the S&S Super Street exhaust tonight, I have the Power Vision to put on tomorrow, probably have to wait for Friday to ride because of more rain here. But no worries, I'm off all Summer.

I'd say if you don't need a tuner if just changing mufflers that changing to a K&N element won't make that much difference, if any.

Don’t you have a Power Vision with a FuelMoto tune?

Nice. Those black fender struts are next on my list. Already have black sigs and standoffs standing by.
