I too am a truck driver. I haul roofing materials from our distribution company to the job sites. Nothing like driving a tractor trailer into high end neighborhoods and watching the corvettes and bmw's freak out...LOL

The reason carbs have a choke is they do not atomize fuel like injectors do. With "globs" of fuel and cold air it makes it harder for the spark plugs to ignite the fire. The better atomized spray from injectors makes the fuel far easier to ignite. At first crank they do get a good dose of fuel...

I actually just a friend and riding buddy get rear ended by a car two weeks ago. He was in traffic and everyone slammed on there brakes including him but not the guy behind him. Threw him onto the car in front of him and left a dent where his head hit. Helmet saved him from some major head trama...

If I wouldn't have built my own I was eyeballing the yoshi or leo vince. They are both available here in the states.

Never seen it in a motorcycle tire but I have dealt with both slime and fix a flat in car tires. Slime is just pure nastiness inside the tire, it does tend to ruin valve cores over time and I have killed some pressure gauges with it.(didn't know it was in the tire, put a gauge on it and blew it...

Not clouded, just not trying to fire up a lengthy dispute over who is right or wrong is all. Some hear and see us, others dont. Purely doing loud exhaust for safety to me is kind of null but whatever, thats just me. The sad truth is the general public as a whole has become so lost in their...

I did it because I like the sound. If loud pipes save lives explain why 5 years ago I had a girl change over into my lane with her window down while I was on my V-Star 1100 with un baffled BUB jug huggers lined up beside her head. I was directly beside her, she never looked and never signaled...

I have taken my hands off the bars many times at speeds from 30 to 70 and had no issue. And yes, I know its viewed as reckless by the police but so is dragging a knee on a set of twisties but that hasnt stopped me yet...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=m-LlK65dXME&feature=youtu.be Better late than never. Finally got a little vid of the exhaust. Enjoy.

1: 2004 Honda RC51 2: Comfort while still handling like a sport bike 3: The sound ( My RC sounded so good with the Jardine system after I cut the can down 5 1/2" )

Pretty much any modern bike will do this when cold with a slip on. The engine is leaned out by the ECU when cold to promote a faster warm up, that combined with the slip on leaning the bike out a small amount can create a difficult running condition when the bike is revved. It is never good to...

Gonna be sunny and 70 here tomorrow. Going riding to test it out, I will take a moment and do a short vid and have you guys lead me through how to post it. I assume its somewhat like posting a picture...

So here are a few quick pics. I will get it cleaned up this weekend and get some better ones. It is currently cold and just finished two days of raining here so what better to do than build an exhaust.... And before anyone asks, the black section of the midpipe is because it is a section of non...

Well, I got my custom pipe all done. What is the best way to post up pics on here so I can share my one off beauty with all of you? Oh, it also sounds amazing!!!!

Tried using one when I raced MX, never was any help for me. I just set my forks the old fashioned way.

I started it with the muffler off and believe me, the cat isnt absorbing much sound. I would run a straight on it but it only sounds good to me with heavy throttle that way. Low throttle/RPM it sounds a bit.....well........tractor like. You can just tell a difference in the sound but after about...

So I like some of you were curious about how the NC would sound with a modified stock muffler. So I had the time this weekend, I figured why not crack her open. I cut off the inlet side behind the shield and looked around inside with my bore scope. Found the spot where I could open it up almost...

I am 6'3" and 185 lbs. I switched to this machine from super sport bikes and motocross. I must say it is not near as powerful as my previous bikes but it is very comfortable, handles like crazy and you cant complain about the mileage. I actually traded in my Honda RC51 for my NC700X manual...

Been through about 5 tanks of pretty aggressive riding. 20-40 mile straights aren't uncommon but mainly twisties that I have almost used every last speck of tread from sidewall to sidewall. Avg 66.4 MPG using 91 octane NON ethanol go juice.

I traded in my 2001 Honda RC51. The NC is a drop in power but I can toss it around in the twisties like the RC and it is WAY WAY WAY more comfortable.
