Gen3 is enroute.
I can't say I was suprized with the customer service from Brock's...too many good things said about it here already. It was cool to actually order from Brock though. Answered all of my questions and seems like a cool guy. Jim kicks ass too. Looking forward to getting this monster installed.
Sorry to beat the horse some more, BUT....any business in the US, regardless of product ---could take some pointers from the way Brock's treats their customers.
thanks Brock...

I want to see how it feels, then I'll pull the flies.

The pipe will smooth the bottom, but all the gains will be from about 7000 rpm up... and it pulls hard right into the redline, and rev limiter.
The fly removal is the perfect compliment to the pipe, and unless you are uncomfortable with the bike already, as most would concurr, pulling the flies is highly recommended.
Be prepared, both mods will really waken the beast within...
It'll give you good wood!

See how it feels first, if you want (We'll let you do that. But not for long...). But pull 'em. You'll never put 'em back in.

Gentlemen, as you may know, my '03 12 was my first bike(26K miles ago)....and like I did with it, I'll get a feel for the bike first. I like adding mods one-by one to see the difference you fellas talk about. Really looking forward to this, I've wanted a stepped hindle for my 12 for a long time, now I'll finally have the REal Deal on my 14. As always, thank you all for your input.
This is the order of install:
Brock/PC & water-wetter
16t
Schnitz front strap/ & lowering links
swingarm extensions by Christmas
NOS next spring(if I'm not overseas.)

My brother had a hindle in his ZX11 and to be honest really wasn't impressed with the quality of the pipe. I was actually thinking about Yosh or akra pipe for this bike but the reason i went with Brock's is because it seems to me hes out there running his pipes and his charts actually mean something. Sometimes i think alot of pipe makers post alot of crap because when u get magazines testing pipes there all similiar in gains or not even near factory claims.

Numbers game? I've been playing the #'s game for a long time. Most specifically, the torque #. How much torque do I need to hurl my 260# ass down the dragstrip faster than the rest of the locals. LOL
