Getting better. Houston, we have a runner!

Ran another 10 this morning on the dyno (thanx Roger). Jardine Slip-On. No other changes. This one spanked our last runner that had a Bolt-On (Sorry D...).

Same dyno, same operator. I think Roger said it had about 2800 miles on it. The graph shows "D"'s bike with the Bolt-On from 2 weeks ago, compared to Roger's bike with the Slip-On. Roger was hopeing for 150hp. At 156.2 hp, he went home happy. Will post a pic of the Slip-On on his bike shortly.

Hi, Kerry,

I'd think it'd be swell if you could make a sound clip of the exhaust and post it for us.

Your pal,

We did a sound clip today with Roger's bike. And at full song bumping off the rev limiter (thank you Roger), it sounded awesome! My "web" guy is having a problem pulling it off his digital camara that has way too many features & buttons for me to operate. Will try to get it up ASAP! Perhaps Roger can try to unbiasely describe it in the mean time....

Mighty impressive I would say . I like the straightness on the S pipe . Void of any radical curves . The high mount guys should be jealous . The Devil pipe is a roller coaster ride compared to this Jardine . Numbers sound very honest , again , and as usual K Bryant .

can I get a sound clip of someone saying "Jardine"?
Is it " Jar-deen' ", or " Jar'-din ", or what?

Jar-dean. As in glass "jar" and the "dean" of school.

I get confused when I see the term "Runner". To me it means just that.... a runner!
I watched as people get bummed about their 10 only making xxxx amount of horsepower. My son bought a 10 and ran it last week at Bristol which is a fairly high elevation track (around 1700 feet) and went 9.70's with no pipe or PC, only lowered and using VP Ultimate 4. His brother went a 9.60 flat with only one pass. That my friends describes a runner. Don't be upset by any numbers, the 10 is an AWESOME bike for sure.
Dyno's are great tools though :-)

sound

Sure I'll tell you how it sounded,BAD ASS loving that pipe,and the picture doesn't do it justice.That s bend is fat and looks sweet not tapered like some of the others,carbon fiber is sweet looking too with a nice finish.Very happy with this purchase.Kerry hook up the sound man! Do I need to bring my bike back? Roger

As unbelieveable as it "sounds", my genius operating the camera/audio says the battery went dead and only got the pic and not the sound...... Might be in the market for a new..... marketing.........just kidding....... Yea, I need another runner..... jeez, wtf......
