RE: Pipes Installed......WOW
Just got my scoot back and have not road it too much but tomorrow I am going to the mountains and put in a few hundred miles.
LOVE the sound of the new pipes and it seems to have a faster response. The dyno showed:
Initial Run = Max Power 63.84 and Max torque 71.88
Final Run = Max Power 7056 and Max torque 83.43
A gain of HP 6.72 and Torque of 11.55 Foot lbs of Torque

I remember the day I rode home after getting my V&H Big Shots Staggs put on. Such a difference. If you are carbed...throw a Mikuni 42MM on there...makes it even more fun.

The big change I noticed after I put my BSS on was the FEEL of the bike. The new set up gave that new rumbling through the handlebars that stock pipes just can't match.

I have pretty much the same setup, V&H BSS, K&N Filter, SERT, but I also added the V&H quiet baffles. They don't reduce the volume much but lower the pitch of the pipes. They also added a little torque. My #s from the last dyno tune were: HP=69.4, Torque=84.4. The difference between now and when the bike was stock is amazing. I was thinking of a 103 engine job a few months ago but now wonder if I really need it.

Have a set of V&H BS Stagard pipes on my '06 Fatboy. Had the carb jetted and added a Ness Big Sucker with a K&N Filter - what a difference. The pipes were great before the Stage I upgrade, but I am amazed at how much more responsive the throttle is with the upgrade. The jetting was done by a small custom shop near my house that does HD work. Saved money over what the stealer wanted and even though he didn't dyno the bike he did a great job of dialing in the mixture.
