RE: Stock or modified poll
Good idea. This will be a fun poll. Thanks for starting it.
My bike runs like a top and is way cooler too. Yes, it still runs around 220 andup tp 240in traffic but I feel this is acceptable. I don't know how hot it was before the mods because I installed the oil temp guage last. I know, not very smart. I also run Amsoil which helps the heat too.

I'm trying to cut out some of the shake and vibration. Anytime you change from stock pipes you will notice a slight increase in vibes.

Also I have just discovered that the baffle in the right SE slipon is loose. Don't know if this is contibuting to the problem but I would guess that it is.The bike is currently in the shop for a tune and if possible to repair the baffle. If it can't be repaired I am thinking of returning it to stock.
Another possible contributing factor is the new style motor mount that was just installed a month ago. Harder rubber, definatly a difference over the original.
When my SG is sick I feel it's pain! lol!
Well there you have it, hope it makes a little sense.
