Looking for a slip on Exhaust..

[JonKerr]

Basically, I bent from the pipes that connect to the headers. I used a technique used by another member of the site. I placed a steel pipe in each pipe and held down the tail end until I widened it enough.

I have the same problem with no fuel mgmt. I need to get one asap. My 19 month old daughter has grown out of most of her clothes so I have to get her a new wardrobe before the fuel mgmt system. Damn kids :justkidding:

Yeah I went a head and put the stock exhaust back on. I'm not going to ride around on a bike shooting flames out the side and backfiring as loud as it was. It was really disappointing. When I heard that thing fire up and that low, loud growl, I was so happy. Then when I rev'd it up and that loud bang and a foot of flame just burst my bubble. I was expecting a bit of a pop and a little backfire, but nothing like that.

I'm still not 100% decided on the weather I want to get a Juice Box or a Power Commander. The $100+ savings of the JB is so tempting, but the ability to have my buddy at Full Throttle Powersports do a dyno run and custom map with the PCV is pulling me that way. I just need to save up the cash.

What headers and can? I ran the 02 r6 header and bent with the jackhandle in the primary , idk if my write up is what santana was going by or not but i don't have 12in flames when i rev mine!!! I've got a standard 02 r6 can D&D

Get the Block off plates! After Robert did his and I helped him re-pack his TBR can, the rivets were a PITA, his was sooooo smooth.

I was talking to an acquaintance of mine at a dealer about his after market exhaust on his ZX10R. He said he's never run a PC or JB and that all bikes come from factory running lean. 22k miles on his exhaust, no pc or jb and no problems as of yet. I don't think you'd hurt it by the time you do get a JB or the PCv. Get the plates, enjoy the exhaust then add the programmer later when you can afford it. - Or don't

02 R6 headers and the GYTR shorty CF can I posted above. I used a propane torch to heat the headers up and used a long breaker bar for some leverage. The biggest challenge was making sure all four were bent the same amount so they all went into the headers evenly.

I wanted to do a write up with pictures etc... But I was so busy trying to get this done and trying to do the bends alone without a second person was a lot of work. I just didn't have the patience to stop and take pics every few minutes.

Just kill the AIS in the bike and you wont have anymore decel popping. Even with the power commander, my bike still pops during hard decel.

 

[MikeN02]

Yes all bikes that come from factory are lean, but when you add a new aftermarket pipe on there it makes it even more lean because more air is coming in. The thing about stock is that the ECU is built for the stock pipe which allows more fuel to be compensated for the air.

With an after-market pipe more air is coming in because, well the pipe has more air coming in. The ECU isn't able to add more fuel than stock, therefore having a lot more backfire than stock.

It's always better to run rich than to run lean, you're damaging the engine by sucking it dry of fuel.

I completely forgot about blocking off the AIS. I remember a thread about just using thick plastic material to block off the hose on the air box. I'll put the headers back on when I get a chance and block off the AIS to see if that fixes the issue.

What is the difference between our setup and the TBR? Isn't that just a straight pipe to exhaust without cat?

you are correct however those shortys have no baffels in them...i would say its like putting a Come werks slipon equalivant on the r6...it purley cosmetic on the r6...i have a buddy with the same one on his r6 and we noticed 0 performance and maybe a little kick in hp on the butt dyno but not nothin spectacular...however i love your setup wish i would have done more searching for a shorter slipon...i will be cutting mine if i cant sell it...also cant wait to see your video...i should post up a better one than my first one

 

[JonKerr]

Well, just got back from a test ride. This bitch is loud. At least compared to what I'm used to. Not as loud as my Dad's Harley. But his bike also cruises at 3000 RPM, not 6500. LOL. I'm so happy with it. The sound is great. It rev's up so much cleaner and quicker. The 'ol "Butt Dyno" felt a bit of an increase. But it may just be because can breath better and quicker so it's getting up to speed faster. After a couple of days of heating, bending, test fitting cutting, grinding, etc... I'm freaking tired. A lot of it was so much trial and error. But if I had to do it again, it wouldn't take nearly as much time or effort.

I'll get some pictures after I rest and maybe shoot a quick video.

So you plated it Jon?

I don't believe he did, just covered the top of the airbox with a plug.

just beware of the new CA loud motorcycle pipes law that the Governator signed...

Only applies to bikes made after 2013.

I just plugged the hose at the top of the air box. I will order the Graves plates soon. Just wanted to get this up and running. Here's a quick video. Excuse the crappy camera work, crappy resolution (old digital video tape camera) and the embarrassingly filthy bike. She got a bath right after I shot this.

Very nice Jon!

 

[JonKerr]

Those of you who have the TBR with the P1 tip, does it quest it down significantly? I'm considering ordering one for my exhaust to tame it down a bit. It's pretty damn loud. Looking at the design, it looks like I may be able to make it work with the GYTR slipon.

 

[Diluted]

I haven't taken it out yet, but it's still plenty loud with it in. I think it only lowers by 3-4db so I can't imagine it being that much louder without it.

 

[rjsantana20]

I dont have flames shooting out on my setup.

 

[JonKerr]

I've actually heard both in person and the one with the tip was noticeably quieter. I posted this in one of the other forums but I wanted to put it here too.

Can anyone who has a TBR P1 tip that may not be installed, or is willing to pull theirs out for a few minutes, get me some measurements on it? I'm looking for the (A) OD of the flange, (B) the diameter of the base where the flat flange connects to the extended part, (C) the diameter of the outer edge (looks like it kind of flares out so it's larger on the end than where it connects to the flat flange) and lastly (D) the overall length of it. I'm thinking about trying to install one of these on the GYTR I just put on to quiet it down a bit. It's crazy loud. To the point I'm setting off car alarms as I ride through the parking structure at work. So any dampening of it would be nice.

 

[Uno979]

if it is really loud you may want to try the p1x tip...
hope this helps....

That's a cute pink ruler you got there he he he

That does help. But I still need to get the (B) and (C) dimension's on the little sketch I made.
