Default Read!!!! READ!!!!

If you couple idiots would read the damn post to begin with, you would understand that I never said I outran a GSXR 750 in a long damn race!!! I simply said I outran him in the qtr mile.....quarter....that means 1/4 of a mile....about 1300’.... which is a short distance. Hell no a stock vrod won’t outrun a GSXR 750 in a mile race. Get the corn cob outta ur asses and read before you start talkn **** you know. I thing about. Cross are still crusaders but faster than most and a 750 crotch rocket is still a girl bike. This is my first harley and simply had a question. I’ve spent the last 25 years in crotch rockets. My first bike was zx11 . Screw a 750 , 750 is a slow crotch rocket, that’s what my gf rides lol. I wouldn’t ride anything under a 1000cc crotch rocket but again this is about harleys so enough crotch rocket whining.

As far as the CFR, not hard to tune at all, been running one for 12 years. If you have doubts try the Indy exhaust from Vance & Hines, although pretty much the same pipe. There are other as well - Aprokovic and Danmoto.

In any case, look up CFR exhaust.

Now this is getting good. How did your VRod that does mid 11's in the 1/4 mile beat a GSXR 750 that runs it in the 10's? Not 1/2 mile. 1/4 mile.
