RE: Competition Werks FE & Jardine RT-One Carbon

A couple question for those who installed the Jardine RT-1 dual outlet on a 2007 1000RR. I am looking for a nice looking slip-on(which I feel the RT-1 is the nicest looking one currently out there for the 1000RR) and am not looking for any performance gains(but also do not want any performance loss).

With that said, is the installation of a Power Commander a "must do" to not experience a performance loss with this particular slip-on? Also, the directions state to un-hook & remove the exhaust valve cables(I read this in the on-line instruction sheet). This seems a bit odd to me.....

Please inform.

Thanks,
-John

I recently installed the RT-1 and i havent felt any power loss right away, i noticed a gain at midrange. The low end is a little sluggish but i can live with it until i get enough money to buy a pc3. And ive also heard that you dont have to unhook the exhaust valve cables but they have a chance of binding up and causing a error light and its not that hard to unhook them anyway.
