Ahh, Just havin' a little fun. I'm bored. It's been raining here forever

After being on this site for some time I'm beginning to regret my decision of not getting the Fullsac stuff. You never know...there could be a Fullsac 2-1-2 header in my future.

Wheelies aside, I could have at least saved myself a bunch of cash.

For those of you with inquiring minds I have V&H Dresser Duals with V&H Hi-Outputs. Good power, runs cool but a little loud at cruise. With just a little touch the of throttle and they really crack. Put on the V&H Quite Baffels (Another $70 bucks). Much better sound and runs much more even on take off.

Yup should have gone with the Fullsac X-pipe, cores and TTS mastertune with Steve's(Fullsac) custom map to match your bike and his parts you bought. It is plug and play, no extra dyno work, and your bike runs much better.

As for the rain, I don't blame you there, I'm stuck in Michigan trying to figure out how to get the Austin TX without riding through hail, tornados, and a bunch of rain. Northern Michigan up by Petosky had a light dusting of snow earlier this week. Today was the first day without rain this week. Still the temp only in the high 50s.

Hehe...   I think your only hope is to set your compass to north and start driving...  In about a week, you'll hit the southern Texas border!

My 2 inch baffles are due to arrive this week..

And my dealer also rang and said the high outputs are in as well so I plan to run the full sac first then the high outputs. Most likely sell the high outputs or keep them for those loud times and have the fullsacs for the long trips.

Installed my 2" Full Sac cores this evening then took it for the first unrestricted ride; the sound is exactly what I was looking for and the performance increase was nice as well.

[North Star]

I kind of did the opposite. I was kind of bored with the Fullsac 2.25" cores, so I just installed some 4" Rineharts tonight.

Don't get me wrong- the Fullsac's did sound nice, and have a good medium volume (IMO), but I don't know, I just wanted something more agressive sounding.

I haven't ridden it yet, but will tomorrow (finally a nice day  ).

Not sure how much improvement I'll find- the Rineharts definitely sound deeper at idle, and do sound really good with probably the same volume (which is good- I didn't want quieter). I revved it up a but, but it spit out a couple chunks of RTV silicone stuff I put on, so I didn't run it much after- figure I'll let the stuff dry, and wait until tomorrow.

The baffles are almost identical looking (louvered and spiralled), so I really hope there is a noticable difference in sound. Actually, the Rinehart baffles look like a bigger diameter just by eye (they come with the 2.25"), so I wonder if my Fullsac's weren't actually the 2.25" like the previous owner told me?

Dunno, but really looking forward to riding tomorrow- I'll post a review then.

I was coming home the other night, was behind a car doing about 50mph, had a rice burner be hide me.  I could see he was wanting to hammer around us.
we came up on a area where we could go around the cage, I had the jump on him and i was pulling away from him up to about a 100 when i shut her down. He follow me into town and when we came to the stop light he ask what i had in this thing and those were the best sounding pipes (fullsec 2.25 with X pipe) he ever heard   dam its nice to be king of the road

Tell him you had a "Fullsac" not a Half-sac   

[HOGMIKE]

I was ready to jump on the "Willy band-wagon".
I was riding with only a "Halfsac", and just by chance was in Laughlin yesterday. Just happened to hear a buddy say that Steve was there and had a booth!
Perfect, this was my opportunity to really unload on him, and tell him his product(s) suck.

[HOGMIKE]

Part 2:
Well, after talking to him for a few hours, and him trying to bribe me with a cold, half-eaten burger, free t-shirt, and too many beers, I have to say I'm a believer!
I can be had easy (ask my wife!).
There will be some new videos soon (be patient Willy),
I can't believe how patient this guy can be talking to potential customers at the booth! You know how the general public can be~!!

Steve: I hope your first time in a booth works for you, tell Cammy she was great company. Thanks for the goodies. Glad you had good weather and don't worry about trying to "break even" on the booth, this is just advertising, you know!
I'll try to get Susie out your way soon, she can do the entertaining, and we can talk bikes!
Need some pics of your rat rod.

PS: bike ran awesome with the trailer, in the wind, up hill, on cruise, averaged about 33-39 MPG...pretty damn good at the speed limit.
I can't think of anything else to do with the bike, except, need a thermometer to replace the one I took out.
That oil temp gauge works pretty good, I'm happy, just have to calibrate it to my test probe one of these days.

North Star, Ive run both and to my old ears and eyes the fullsac baffles and rineharts ave virtually identical in looks and sound, there is a surprising difference in volume between the 2 in and the 2 1/4 in it sound like you had the 2 in fullsacs.

[MC88]

I got my 2 inch baffles this week and at the same time the dealer rang and said he had my  Hi outputs  as well,

First the V&H went on , nice deep rumble  resonably loud and sets off car alarms in my car park.

Second on was the fullsacs , BTW im also running the V&H power duals and the sound is great at idle and  a nice mellow tone through the rev range. No alarms set off in the car park.

So it looks like they will stay on for now , i really like the stock ends of the pipes with the black tips ,.

So its another  for Steve.

Thanks for bringing the cold ones Mike. Laughlin had its moments. Overall the event has dwindled down to a stand off between the cops and
the Bikers. Attendance was way down for a once thriving ralley. Talked to a whole bunch of guys with older bikes and complete obliviation
to cataletic converters and TTS programmers. The old bikes are still alive. My Mustang seat drew considerable attention?
Met a handfull of cool customers, got a vist from Steve @ GMR. Saw some freaks, drank some beers. Good times!

Just for the record, I have been wheelieing with my girlfriend on the back of my bike since High School.

Obviously you've built a great product with a big following. To bad I'm in so deep with V&H Hi-outputs but maybe soon there will be a Fullsac 2-1-2 header in my future.

Keep the wheelies coming!
