Hi! New to the NC700X and the Forum. I've spent the past few days reading posts about exhausts, but have not been able to find a straight answer to my questions. I'm hoping someone who has installed a full exhaust can chime in or point me in the right direction. Or even embarrass me with a link to a previous discussion on the topic.
Did anyone encounter issues after installing a full exhaust (Arrow or Leo Vince)? Was a fuel controller required?
This is my first adventure-type bike after many, many years of sport bikes. I got the bike because I wanted a more practical 2-up bike so I can enjoy riding with my kids. Don't miss the horsepower of the sport bike - I never liked going fast in a straight line and the NC seems to have the torque when needed around corners and curves. I don't mind giving up some gas mileage since my last bike only got me 35 MPG. I do miss the deeper throaty sound when riding since my last 5 or 6 bikes were Ducatis. I suppose I can just install a slip-on and be done with it, but I wouldn't mind losing the cat if it does not introduce unwanted flat spots and mess up the power curve.
Thanks,
Pedro
