[QUOTE="Spokes574, post: 1323871, member: 22918"] Rich, Good question about the pipe install. Basicly I read so many bad reviews about the bike, in addition to the fixes to the problem areas. I did not want to be disapointed in riding the bike the first time so I did all the suggested fixed, except the gearing and mapping. The reviews were all roughly the same. You are totally correct that the stock ignition is optimized for the stock pipe and changes/tollerances allowed are very small. I read that in the first EFI test 2yrs ago. The pipe I selected is very close in size and almost the same technology as the Honda stock pipe so hopefully I am getting the best performance w/o remapping. I was smart enough to get the dyno curve before purchasing and got the steel head pipe / Al carbon canister which was about 1/2 the price of the exotic material version. I will call the manufacturer and see if they have or suggest a different map than the stock. I will let everyone know on Monday. What I did notice about most of the pipe manufacturers; is that for this bike the pipes are longer than stock which makes sense to make more over-rev. Spokes574 [/QUOTE]
