First day to try out the stg 1. I was looking to reduce the heat on my bike by putting on the Fuelmoto headpipe and Jackpot 4" mufflers. I also installed a SESPT, SE/AC and had it dyno tuned. Yesterday it was 80 degrees here and a good test to see if the heat was reduced. Happy to report the tune is right on the money, no ping, no popping on decel and what a reduction in heat to the thighs. I rode a little over 200 mi and was able to check out the mileage also, got 42.4 mpg with just 1900 mi on this new bike.
I like to ride my bike, by that I mean, I like to twist the throttle where possible. The bike pulled flawlessly through out the gears, with good throttle response even in 6th at freeway speeds. Getting rid of the "cat" is the best mod you can do on your bike. I'm a happy camper!
