Default Jardine RT-1 Exhaust Installation!

Just installed my new Slip-on! So I installed and started her up...seems like shes not getting enough gas and I can smell a bunch of raw gas...What do i need to adjust and how? Air/Fuel mixture? I know may be a noob question but hey im new! especially to DIY on bikes lol.

a PCIII and a dyno

Maybe be able to download a map for your pipe n load it into the PCIII and help some, but it wont be as good a gettting it dyno'd tune for your bike and area.

Not w/o a PCIII USB, and a laptop with the PCIII app installed.

I think someone mentioned this, but, IMO as well, save the PC and dyno for your very last mod. Because if you get a PC now and dyno now especially just after you installed your slip-on, you're just gonna be wasting money because you're getting it re-dynoed after every mod you do. But mine is like that, well at first it was.

How is it now?!

Picturess!!!!!! =]

Engine would be leaned out by installing pipe,so the fact that U can smell fuel in exhaust seems abit odd, although it may be running rich at idle then lean as rpms increase.

ive got a jardine high mount and a jardine mid mount..and im having no problems like you are. check to make sure your air filter is clean and you are getting the normal amount of air flowing through the engine...theres step one.
