It made more noise but there was no go. No other work has been done and I am still running the stock air cleaner. Once I put the mid range baffles in all the BS went away. I had ordered the mid range baffles when I sent in the mufflers in anticipation of the lack of back pressure and thought I might want to quiet them down a little. I prefer the look of the stock mufflers over everything else I have seen from the aftermarket and these do sound good.
Thanks Ganno57

My Fuel Moto map was very, very close. Perhaps slightly rich, but fuel mileage ranges from 40-44. If I had a laptop computer I could tinker with the map, but it runs so well I'll most likely just let it be.
