THANK YOU!
We put on another 100 miles and one more rain storm.
:yahoo::yahoo::yahoo::yahoo:
and Mrs V broke one of the rear footrests... so her floorboards are on the' Top-o-the-list' now.
The quiet exhaust is So sweet... but...it lets you hear EVERY other noise... I swear I can hear the cam chain slapping the case sometimes. And I am pretty sure this motor does not have a cam chain. mg: Time to re-calibrate ears. :fool:
After it warms up, I can hear the front exhaust valve clearance open up a bit. I'd rather 'hear them clatter than feel them splatter', so I am OK with that. I set all of them and checked them TWICE.
30 MPG - The flow fuel light turned on before, and I added 3 gal. 90 miles later and the low fuel light turned on again. :bye: Good to see that working.
The exhaust wrap works really well. It never got hot enough to smoke after the collector area, and the part under the seat stays cool. I love how 'clean' it looks underneath from a distance. Mission accomplished there.
I wish it was as smooth as a flat 6 or even an inline 4... but that big chrome V Twin look is worth it for a recreational driver.
