Default Torque Cones ?

Any one here using them , would like to hear your input . I ride the 05-1200c (carb) S/EII's slip ons - K&N air filter . Been hearing increased fuel milage & better responce from a minimal investment . Are they worth it or a waste of time and money ?

I use them only with my drag pipes. Seams to help with overall running quality.

Torque cones go in the wrong end of the pipe. Think about it.....SE wouldn't be pedding their performanceexhaust gaskets that alledgedly give you more flow at the heads if adding a restriction like atorque cone up there was good idea.... A shorty baffle oreven a lollipopis a better choice.

I am in the same boat as 951200XL. I also have drag pipes on mine and when I first put on my drags the bike didn't have enough back preasure (hard starting and poor running) I installed torque cones and now I have no problems at all.
