Yoshimura RS-3 exhaust can on a 74 z1

ya it has grown on me as well andy. Tonight i was playing around with it in an empty parking lot pulling wheelies in 1st and second gear. I was even screwing with the tuner car croud, i blew the doors off of some honda with a coffee can exhaust. It has so much power. And the hesitation comming off the line is gone. It is just about as smooth running as your 650 i rode at mid ohio, a tad bit louder but not get the cops attention loud. When i was wheelying in the empty lot an unmarked squad car came through......he actually let me wheelie for about ten minutes before he told me to go home......lol.

.he actually let me wheelie for about ten minutes before he told me to go home......lol

He was enjoying the show while on his Dunken Donut break....

Honda... We need the story indeed...Which models ass did you kick?

BTW, update your new pipe images in your project... Love that pipe, friggin thing just looks massive on your bike.
Probably scares the hell out of any other rider you come across thats thinking about racing you off the line.

Here is my 78 with a zx6 pipe on it. I also went to Meinkie. They get bored doing the same old thing day in and day out and love to do custom stuff.

Holly crap (no pun intended due to your skivies) that looks seriously wicked!

Damn, that old girl just has some mean ass attitude...
Just beautiful.... does she have tits?

I think it was a honda civic but i dunno, it looked like he has 8 inch rims....lol. I Honestly think he just spent bookoo bucks on the exterior, and 40.00 at auto sone for the muffler. Cause that car was damn slow. I only raced him because, i stopped off at white castle for a bite to eat, and when i came out he asked me what size it was. I said a 900. Then he asked what i ran in the quarter, and i said mid 12's. He said well i rund a 15, but i think i can take you cause i have fuel injection and yours is carburated. I was laughing, and in doing this it must have really upset him cause he demanded that we raced right there. So there was about a 3/4 mile strait away. We lined them up, and cause since im since a nice guy i let him beat the crap out of his clutch when he dumped it comming off the line. I slowly accelerated and pulled a wheelie in first wich made all the other tuner car peoples mouths drop wide open in amazement. Then shifted into 2nd got even with his drivers door, looked over and waved then kicked the old girl in the ass for everything she had just to further humiliate him. When i got back by the tuner crowd, i asked the dude i raced if he thought my bike was running a bit off, cause it just didnt run like it usually does. Then he got pissed off got in his car, took off and proceeded to drift around a corner and damn near took his car out on the sidewalk. All the tuner people said im more than welcome to hang out with them anytime. LOL:cheer: :laugh: :laugh: :lol: :silly: :woohoo: :side: :woohoo: :silly:

Your place in Kawi HELL is waiting...hahahahaha :laugh:

It sure would have been great if he wiped out the car on the curbside... Classic Kodak moment.

Too friggin funny.

Ya the guy that made the mid pipe said it was cool to do something custom, rather than the same old thing. And yes your right kz owners are the coolest. lolB) :silly: :side: :woohoo:

Well i rode the old girl on a 100 mile or so ride today. It ran so good, and to boot was getting 43ish mpg. It was so nice to have a quite ride versus the open header. It has so much low end tourqe and cuises and sounds so good at 65.

Well since it was raining today, i made a bracket for the can. I just bent some scrap steel i had laying around. It looks good and the can is on there good now. Il post some pics when the weater gets nice out. It runs from the top shock mount down to the can.
