Took the bike out last night for a ride. Went about 30 miles which is the longest ride it has been on since I have owned it. I don't have a functional speedometer right now but I think I had it up to around 80mph or so. In lots of corners on a winding road. Bike rides so nice! Handles like it's 25 years newer! Exhaust wasn't a problem at all either. I didn't corner as hard as I would have liked due to traffic.

Bike runs perfect with the Suzuki exhaust. No lean popping or anything. Pods with stock jets!

Awesome news with the ride, Mike! I'm getting the itch to finish my project up! That's even better that it didn't give you any issues with jetting (even though you have the pods and a different exhaust). How do the plugs look after the ride? As for the collector- that's some really good news for me- means I should be ok with mine too :)Got any video clips of the bike running for a sound check?

Awesome job on the build!

Wiring was simple. 2 wires. I modified the MC and it works great!

Absolutely love it- great job. The only caveat is that the can looks a little out of place. My unrequested and unneeded .02 cents- but I do love the bike!

The whole exhaust cost me $20. Sounds good and didn't have to rejet. It is a factory Suzuki Bandit exhaust.
