****, are the pipes that loud? I have them but haven't installed 'em yet. Anyway, we do appreciate your work!

 

Someone more knowledgeable help here, but isn't chocolate brown not "nice" for a plug? Isn't that getting a bit too rich? I thought a tan color meant the mixture was good.

I think dark tan is what I am used to look for.

Now tell us about the sound, how did it change with the new baffles?

 

ok first off i spelled chocolate rong. also i spelled the day after today wrong. now that im perfect again...i ment tan. i havent installed the fiberglass wrap yet because i wanted to do the plug chop first, adjust, then add the wrap & note the diff..... sounds like alot of bs excuses to me. ill post the day after today

 

Yo Pig I've got a couple of maps richened up for the BAK one with richer upper end and one with richer lower and upper end same as 403-010 in the middle wont affect cruising speed or mileage, if youd like to give it a try email me your email address Ill get it to you. See ya

 

well. my plug chop was inclusive. i warmed the bike up, held it at 2,700rpm for 5 min, killed the engine & coasted to a stop. when i pulled the plug, the tip was tan & the ring was a little dark but no deposits. same for low end, 2,000rpm, no change. i need to start with clean or new plugs & ride for alot longer than i did. like up the hwy for an hour. anyway the bike has plenty of guts

 

How is the torgue on the Two pipe set up Pig?

 

i think i lost a little low rpm torque but i might have a good old fashoned fix. i welded a 5/16" washer to a 1/4 x 20 bolt. 1 for each pipe. im going to start the bolt into the baffle, install the baffle then screw the bolt through the pipe untill the washer is centered in the baffle & lock it down with a nut. this should restore just enough low end back pressure. this has been discussed on other web sites & has been practiced for years. if it doesnt work ill simply remove it & go back to the drawing board.

 

I love my V&H bigshots cause i like'em loud,even with the baffles in.But with them out god help us a traffic ticket is soon to come.My butt dyno said more power"lots more"low end torgue, if i lost some don't tell my back tire it still screams murder, and has an cronic smoking habit. gas mpg is down a drop or two.
