|  Gottem On !!
OK, got out in the garage this morning after my wife went to work and started looking at those pertty pipes standing up against the wall..........what if I take and modify the original bracket.......to make it look like the one Outlaw made the picture of........let's see........after about two hours, BINGO ! gottem on. It ain't perty but it works until I can get the new bracket. The only difference between the bracket that Outlaw has and the original is about 3/4" offset, so a washer here and a washer there and their on. Took it out for a little 50 mile spin and Wholly Smokes ! what a difference from stock. If I'm not carefull, the front wheel will come off the ground in second gear (did it twice just to make sure). The High Five, Fuel Processor, and the Pipes make a world of difference. Oh, and did I mention sound.............AWESOME !!!, not much louder than stock when idleing, but twist your right wrist and WOW, the sound doesn't crack like normal drag pipes but it's a loud low rumble. It holds that rumble all the way thru 5 gears. It's breathing soooo much better, I'm not looking for that elusive 6th gear anymore. Seems like I gained 10 MPH per gear, I don't have to shift as soon as before. Top end "Roll On" feels like a different motorcycle, I don't have to down shift to gain speed, just Roll On the Throttle. Looks are just icing on the cake, long low matte black that compliments the black engine case, the High Five accents the top half with a touch of metal chrome that is different from stock "Plastic Chrome". |
