I haven't been able to find a single interesting twisty road around here yet and I need to lean the bike over a bit to keep myself sane. It's too the point where I look forwards to the squares here, cause I can actually lean the bike a bit. http://www.motowhere.com/ This website has often given me some good suggestions in my area to check out - you might find the same. You can also submit routes that you find interesting! I also use it as a good planning tool in general. the letter b fucked around with this message at 08:56 on Oct 16, 2008 |

Some of you may remember I asked a question about living without a muffler on my Honda Transalp (XL650V) for a week or so while I had it repaired (ultimately replaced). After getting the noise checked out, it actually falls well within legal limits in my state, and the note's actually grown on me to the point where I'll pull the muffler off for a spirited ride every now and then. There doesn't appear to be any registration or insurance issues after talking with my insurer. Because of this, I'm thinking about leaving it as is. I don't notice any power or torque differences. Before: http://vimeo.com/1815300 After: http://vimeo.com/1815279 A couple of questions: Should I need to adjust or rejet my carbs if I wanted to keep the exhaust exiting where it is (essentially about 10cm after the cat)? Are there any inherent dangers in shortening the exhaust path this much? The only issue I'm a little worried about if those things 'check out' is that the exhaust currently exits in a spot where it may get too hot for some plastics if I rode for any length of time. I'm considering just getting a pipe about the same length as the muffler made up to direct the exhaust where I want it to go.
