Thx guys! Yeah I really like the sound now... it's like a 50/50 muffler. Keep it under 3500-4000 rpm and it's pretty damn quiet... so on highway cruising with a 18/30 gearing my ears aren't bleeding!! But when you see some chicks on sidewalk... braaapp!
I've drop needle 1 notch and it's a little bit closer to perfection... Insulator is perfect but got some black around the top, maybe it will go with time.
I'll try to shoot a quick vid today just with the exhaust for you guys!
I need to stiffen my rear end a little bit... my sag is good on those shocks, but due to the angle, when I hit the road, it's a little bit to soft. Ol'Caddy style... 30 years old shocks
Some advice on stiffer shocks? Need to keep it around 12''- 13'' long and budget style!!
