Well i finally did it. Took about 3 hours. It sounds Awesome.... sooo loud. Straight pipe No cat and no muffler. I still need to clean it and maybe put one more coat of black on it. But so far very well worth it :) I will post a sound clip as soon as i can get my hands on a video camera.

Looks good. Where do you plan on riding it? Hopefully not on the street.

Thanks. Yeah i will be riding on the street but i will be smart about it.. I mean a lot of harleys out there have really loud exhausts so im not to worried.

Haha thanks man... well my friend who did it followed me home last night and he said when im just cruising on the highway its not to bad. but when i hit on it a bit its ridiculous. Its much louder idle too. I got home around 1030 last night so i walked it from 2 streets over cause im such a nice guy :lol

wait until you start ripping the revs around doing wheelies and what not:jump:yesnod

I hope you have a good helmet though, or else your ears are gonna hate you. I know first hand, my sled has a pipe and aftermarket muffler on it (its basically a glasspack) and it is rediculously loud. Its awsome when your hot rodding around but if you spend all day on the thing itll start to give you a good headache.

it does... im afraid to start it up in my neighborhood. I dont mind it being loud on the highway etc but i try to be as courteous as possible

The Pipes look real good, IMO...
Congrats, Still no sound clip?



+1 the tail is gunna look like shyt...
Hope something gets done to smooth it out!

Tomorrow i will have pics of the tail and whole bike.
Umm I think today was Yesturday's Tommorow! :fact

I dont believe that. I already feel it more peppier and im not just saying that. If you get a good tuner who can make a map then it will happen. That doesnt make any sense.. there is absolutely no restrictions on this thing.. how could it drop in power?
Im No Pro, Or custom tuner.. So Im thinkin the same way as you right now..
But I wouldnt doubt we are both Wrong...:lol

thanks for the comments guys. Im sure it will get annoying to me now and then but ill deal with it. From here i will be buying the $800 graves header, k&n air filter, smog block offs, and a pc3. Then i will be getting it tuned. Cant wait to see the numbers.

ive never listened to my ipod while riding but i was told i wouldnt be able to hear it

Thanks Brandon. I only rode with it on for 10 minutes last night and its been raining all day today so i will need to see how it is riding longer.

looks good, lets see some more pics of the tail.... I would love to be rid of the underseat exhaust but I would like to have a replacement tail with a larger storage compartment to replace it. I wear ear plugs on almost every ride and I don't have a problem hearing cars, it just mutes everything but you can still hear. If anyone values their hearing they would do the same.
I will take some pics of it tomorrow cause its pouring out right now. And like i said above i need to ride more. I only got 10 min with them last night on the ride home.

WOW! That looks super sweet. Can't believe how you were able to hide it stealth style. Please when you get a chance can you post a pic of the bike total? I want to see how it looks in full dress. Really man, I am speechless. GOOD JOB!:rock

ok you want the bad news. NO one will be able to tune it and get you power. the power will probably be down from stock. just a note from when we have tried to tune the boz exhaust when we were at the shop. there is no back pressure so it drops power and the air fuel ratio will be all over the place.

any questions feel free to pm me
 
#32 ·
interesting news, I was thinking of the Boz Bros but I guess I am going to keep looking at the Akra.

thanks. I've had loud cars b4. Im very respectful about it. Usually ill coast in with the clutch in and shut it off right when i get to my driveway. And if they say anything ill just let them know how their stupid dogs wake me up every morning.
