In light of the fact that it seems that the value on the EBR isn't going up, and I haven't had much luck selling it yet, I decided I might as well ride it in the mean time. Some of you may know I had Deans exhaust on my bike and sold it, now I have the stock exhaust again. I was wondering if anyone can weigh in (maybe Dean) and tell me how bad is the stock exhaust. Has anyone tried to see what the power difference is between a properly tuned stock system and the aftermarket? Thinking of removing the primary muffler and fabricating a merge to run an arrow slip on in place of the stock secondary. Im not a huge fan of the shorty exhausts and I have had them on 2 bikes, so I hesitate to just take off the secondary and run the race ECM. Yes, those shorty systems are too loud for me, but the stock one seems to be junk. An Arrow slip on in place of the stock secondary should keep the noise to the rider down while improving performance.
