slip on question
Just put on my spankin' new Jardine slip-on. Looks sweet, sounds better. The question I have is do I need to retune my bike, or should it be good as is. I went for a little ride, about a mile, the wind is blowing about 50 today, and didnt really notice any negative change. Maybe at highway speeds it will be different. Well any response is appreciated. Go easy.

RE: slip on question
I know I'm not answering you question, but so are you really happy with the Jardine? Reason I ask is that I am seriously thinking about buying that same slip-on for mine and just wanted to find out what everyone thinks of this pipe for the rr? I know its all new for you right now, but was just curious....

The slip-on is not going to make much of a difference. Besides the better sounds and looks, and MAYBE a tiny bit more power it won't effect the bike. It wouldn't hurt to put on a power commander and take it to a dyno, but it shouldn't be necessary. Now if you put the full system on then yes, it would be beneficial to retune the bike. But as far as the slip-on goes, you should be fine leaving it how it is.

Just rode to my mother in laws house-about 25 miles away. Got it up to 85, no probs. So bluerrchik, I'm lovin' it. It sounds good at idle, way deeper, from about 3-6 grand, not much of a difference. Once it gets up to about 7 grand, it sounds awesome. I know some people are kind of down on Jardine, but for the price $275, you can't beat it. It also comes with a new fender that really cleans up the rear end. I got my at pipecity.com took 3 days for shipping, and shipping was free. I will definitely get the two bros. later, but for now this is awesome. I definetely recommend it if you are looking for an affordable entry level slip on.
