how is this setup for normal riding

yoshimura full system (or should i get slip on)
k&n power kit (includes filter and jets)
6 one inch holes drilled in the airbox lid plugged with filtered vents.....

 

don't forget to switch to a 14 tooth front sprocket... I highly recomend it unless you spend 75% of your time running wide open in 5th.

also before you go spending big $$ on a yoshi you might want to ask Gabe about his mods... I think you would get more bang for your buck using his setup.

 

How much topend mph do you lose and how much lowend acceleration and torque do you gain with a 14 tooth front sprocket?Thanks

Before I changed the sprocket the bike wouldn't rev out in 5th gear.. now it's capable of almost hitting the rev limiter, so I think the extra RPM's are making up for most of the speed loss (the bike is stock except for the sprocket). I noticed a big difference in torque, it just makes the bike feel 'snappier'. My GPS is on the blink so I don't have any hard numbers as far as the top-speed loss goes, but the bike is definately mroe fun to ride now.

I heard the stock header is sufficient for low end mods such as jets, filters, and pipes.

Can anyone else back this up with hard facts?

 

hey guys why are you trying to slow these bad boys up? i run a 16 tooth front sprocket and a k&n filter with a 155 main jet, and that boy will run and guess what? it still comes up in 3rd and 4th... i also got a white brothers e series pipe, shredder tires in the rear holeshots in the front.go to a 16 for topend, the ex dont need anymore low end it needs top for the love of god!!

 

It all depends on where you ride. I don't need anymore top to my bike, I need torque. A smaller front sprocket increases torque multiplication and brings the gears a bit closer together, giving me a little more control of where I can put the RPM band.

Torque is more fun than a couple of MPH of top speed anyhow.

 

Ya it all depends on your riding area.. I run a 14T up front and a 39T rear for dunes I run 15T and a 38T for drags and a 14T/38T for MX.. Sometimes 15/38 for MX also

 

TRUE GUYS BUT A FEW MPH ISNT WHAT WERE TALKING, I GAINED 8MPH WITH MY K&N AND 16 TOOTH SPROCKET, ALL I CAN SAY IS KEEP RIDING RED!!!!!
