Slip-On Installed, but is a PCIII Required??
The bike I'm picking up on Saturday has an M4 slip-on, but it doesn't have a pcIII or anything. Should that be something I should get right away, or car I ride it without problems for a while. I quess I would like to know if there will be any damage done if I ride it without the pcIII. I'll have the money to get the pcIII, but I would like to get frame stands and a few other odds and ends first like gear. Thanks in advance

No damage.... it may run rich or lean depending on the set up, but you're not going to break anything. We have a lot of people running slip ons without a PC III. I will be in about two more weeks. You will get better performance if you do buy one, but you can wait.

I've got a Yosh RS-3 with no PCIII. My bike runs fine.

I've been told that to get the maximal performance gains possible from the pipe you need a controller to customize fuel/air mix, etc. This is consistent with my experience with other vehicles ('03 Suzuki LTZ 400 w/Full Yosh exhaust, Stage 2 Carb Jets, and K&N filter).
To be honest I'm pretty new to street bikes, so a stock 600cc engine is plenty for me. I just wanted something to sound a little more aggressive. The Yosh matches my bike perfectly too and looks great.

Thanks again. I will get the PCIII after a few months of riding and after I get used to it. I rode a 95 ZX7 and my buddy with an '01 F4i could walk all over the 750. He was more experienced than I was, but straight line acceleration and 6th gear roll ons he could beat me. So it will take me a few weeks to get used to it and then I'll get a few more bolt ons. I appreciate all of your input guys.

If you rev the bike up near redline, and then abruptly shut the throttle, you'll most likey encounter some backfiring/popping if you don't have a custom map to go with the aftermarket pipe. That used to drive me crazy when I had my Speed Triple. Now I'm running my CBR with a 2BR pipe, K&N and a PC3 with a perfect map and there is absolutely NO popping whatsoever. It's really music to the ears!

Thanks Don. I really want to get one with a custom map, but I would rather get a new helmet and jacket first. I'll probably get one by the end of the summer after I get used to the bike.
