Default Just did stage 1

Took the scoot to my local indie. He did the stage 1 using arlen ness breather, k&n filter. Rejetted with 44 and 200. I already had screaming eagle II slip ons and the baffles had been removed before I got the bike. Oh yeah, its a 2004 883 custom. I just drove it home and already big difference. i didn't have to leave the choke out except to get it going and maybe 30 secs. It accelerated soooo smooth, I couldn't believe it was the same bike. Thanks for all the info on this forum. It wasn't expensive and what a difference!!! you guys and gals rock!!! also: it sounds sooooo good too!!!!!!

agree thats a great upgrade-
my fav on my bike too... arlen ness sucker, v&h pipes and fuel controller.
like having a new power plant on the bike- i remember the first time i rode my new set up. kept worrying that the front end was gonna fly!

I was waiting for this comment. Yeah that is what the work sheet said. Next time I see him, I'll ask about it. I should have asked at the time but honestly I just wanted to try it out and didn't see that. What do you think?????

See what happens to your fuel mileage and keep an eye on your plugs to see if they carbon up.

+1 - A 200 is WAY big even for a 1200 with Stage 2 or 3 mods. Get her up to 80mph on the highway, go WOT and hold it there for a mile. Bet it fouls a plug.
