EVERYONE run like shit. took 5 passes just to get it to NOT blow the tire off. in valdosta at SGMP we run 20psi in rear, and here we had to get down to 8psi, and would still spin in the top of first. didnt pull anything close to my normal times, just obviously no one did either!

sadly, my times were all 6.0x's but all the other guys that are there every weekend say they were between .3 and .4 off. i usually run 5.8x's but the guys that run 5.6's couldnt get traction, so i just took it easy. the hardest thing was fighting the wheelspin. my second pass i blew the tire off at the starting line, so just for grins i spun the tire all the way across the 1/8mile(5th gear)! it was very frustrating , bc ive never had that problem.

shane, thats the boz bros moira. i know it was a very bad decision, but i bought it back in 06 whenever i got the bike. i read about it, and it said it came witha baffle, and the pic of the baffle they showed on their website at the time was a big one (thought it would add a little bit of backpressure) but now my knowledge has grown here at this site, and i know the pipe is junk for power. but everytime i come up with a little extra money, its either upgrade something else and leave the current exhaust, or do something else (like extensions, etc) but a brocks WILL be my next big purchase. i personally dont care for the pipe now..

I've heard it's not great also...but how is your mph? Seems like you have it running decent if it turns 5.8's...

and thats as low as i can get the rear end with the muzzy lowering links (on the middle hole) if i put on the lowest hole, it bottom hole, the swingarm is bottoming out on i believe its where the fuel pump is... need some adjustables, and when i get time im going to take the shock out and tighten the spring up. that will help, right?

U guys know what its like to be in a full leather suite for 4 hours and its hot as hell outside!
