Changed mine about 3 weeks ago, I got lucky, took about 1 hour, but I cheated I have a buddy who is a mechanic and has all the right tools. He made me do the work for the most part but things went very well. Makes a big difference, enjoy.

One other.......I have a torque wrench, displays ft lbs only. Can that be converted? If so, what's the conversion?


If you absolutely need to use ft lbs......... 1 ft lb = 12 inch lbs

Purchased the correct torque wrench. Lol. I have to laugh at myself. One would just assume 12inches equals a foot. Just not me. Lol

Put a few miles on the decatted pipe. Very good mod! Very happy! Little more noise. Little more power. Nothing crazy but noticeable!

Bike is getting fun to ride. Cam in the next couple weeks. That will be it. Until I start another full time job to pay for the 120........lol!
