Full Exhaust w/o PC?
I was chatting to a Kawasaki-shirted guy at the show, telling him how much I love the new 14R, except for the fugly exhaust. He claimed that you could put on an aftermarket exhaust and wouldn't need a power commander, the ECM would self-adjust.
Is he right or just blowing smoke? I'd like to get a CT w/o the hassle of the PC rig; I'm not a drag racer, just a casual street rider, so I don't need every last drop of performance.

He was not incorrect about being able to put a CT on it without a PCV, BUT if you look at the AF ratio... a PCV would help allot..
The exhaust looks GREAT!!!

BUT, a PCV would be recommended.... When they are available

AF could definitely be tweaked.... certainly not optimal

Us ozzies are getting ones with o2 sensor. Should make a/f while cruising acceptable.

That is not necessarily true. Are you sure it is using it to adjust the A/F or just using it for emissions monitoring?
