Fo show Cara, in regard to the headers, I've got to shit or get off the pot. I think when I rise for work tomorrow, I am going to pull the trigger...YOLO

I look forward to reading about your impression of the difference with the headers. Being cheap and lazy I'd like to avoid it if I can. I remember putting the alienhead on my 3rd gen zx10r and having a moment of fear when I had it all torn apart in my living room wondering if I'd be able to put it back together.

And I agree that Yosh is great stuff with a sweet sound; probably the highest quality for the price imho. I had a cheap $300k TRC on the L1 I traded for the 14r and it was stellar.

Jason,
I had the carbon version (yosh) of your pipe in the pic on an old CBR F4i I saved from sitting idle in a retiree's garage, had it on my R1 and kawi zx6r. I know what you mean by assembly at home, always scary to pull em apart and see what goes where and pray it all fits!!!

What are you riding these days?

I can tell you it sounds awesome, performance! I am sure she is a rocket. Ask Darryle what numbers he saw on his GPS!

Cblast,Hindle first put a stealth system on the 14r,after my street meg on my 07 14,I liked it,but……it was too quiet,great for 800 km days.The evo system is definitely louder.I can ride without ear plugs.If I'm on a trip I where plugs.Lang Hindle's pipes are not just about HP but sound also.You could say he has a musical ear

Darryle you are avoiding the question, but given this is a very public forum, I understand. I was in the parking lot when you fired her up and rolled away. Your stead sounded good!

C I am loyal to a fault with Yoshimura, every bike I owned has had one. Can't say enough. Hindle makes nice stuff too, but my loyalty flies with Mura!

Being the law abiding citizen that I am,and the fact that in Ontario we have a law that 50 kph over the posted limit may incur a fine up to 10,000.00fine I would never intentionally break the law but....do to physical damage incurred to my body from street racing,I mean street riding.I recently had an incident where my wrist locked up and I had to keep shifting gears to avoid hurting my beloved motorcycle.Fortunately I was able to free my wrist in the upper rev range of 6th gear.after escaping this terrific dilemma I quietly rode the back roads home.upon inspecting my Gps it seems I was 230 kph over the posted limit of 100kph.For any one this site who may feel I was being irresponsible I apologize and it will never happen again unless of course my wrist was to lock up again

That has been a factory flaw since I... I can't remember? It's an airborne species that lives only in auto and motorcycle manufacturing plants. Once you breath it in, usually that sets up camp for one of those. Especially if you bring one of those home from the dealer. Then, it gives off airborne in the garage and well... You're [throttle] stuck with it until you sell it or total it.

It's called,'Throttle Stuck Syndrome.' Very common. No cure or antidote. What I was told was to live with it. Suck it up. Be a man. Don't cry. Take the garbage out without hesitation once you are told for the third time by you know who. I'd say see a doctor but watt4? There's no recovery time... to do WOT?

Hey Wolf,
What are you going to do man? Getting the headers or not. I just want to know so I can tease you for being a wuss or not ;-)

I have that WOT Syndrome as well... it earned me a High Speed Driving Award a couple weeks ago. My attorney is trying to knock it down for me tho. I should know next week how successful he was.

I really like the look of that hindle. Their website lacks info. I am sure there is some story as to why Brock's sells their product but will not support it? Why is that? Where would one purchase a set of those slip ons they make?

Omega still on the fence - I am 50% Wuss!
got a weekend date with my wife, and it will be the first time we are gone alone without the kids. After I have sex all weekend, I usually clear my head (pardon the pun) and get knocked to my senses (probs order it then!)

Darryle I am crippled with laughter, but I had the same problem last night keeping up with two fellers you might know. One of em, left the turbo at home too! Man these guys are fast!

Warm Regards Wrist Lockers,
W

Darryle settle a bet for me...

Your weight is around 140 lbs?

You have BTS carbon rims and full system?

Your running a PC?

Have you had your bike flashed?

Inquiring minds want to know. Either way you are a Ballistic Missile!!!

See you next launch!

Wolf
