I have noticed many if not all of these aftermarket exhaust videos on the FTR1200 a backfire or type of sputter during ACCELERATION. When the bike is revved in neutral at the top of the RPMs a PftPft PftPft before the RPMs come down. The sound is bothersome to me in that it just doesnt sound good. Thinking of buying a new FTR1200 and will leave it stock if the sputtter and Pft is what a new exhaust and tune produces. Its not the pleasing popping sound on deceleration some engines make when their getting hammered on.
@JP Chandler yeah.. i talked with the guys at fuel motto.. I'm looking forward to being a hooligan! Did you leave the DB reducer in.... fuel motto said its worth about 10 ftlbs down low to leave it in..
Loud pipes save all live!!!
CARBON FTR 1200 IS ON MY BUCKET LIST. It needs a straight pipe or Vance & Hines shorties. Thrush makes a great sounding exhaust too
So, what numbers did the bike put down on the dyno?
right? Inquiring minds want to know.
Yeah such a waste of time placing on the dyno, plus can the backfire be tuned out?
Zoom Zoom
Kinda sorta pointless showing bike on dyno without before and after numbers; how hard is it to setup a tune?
at first i agree but then i realized i DO want to hear the muffler at different loads not just idle revs and the dyno is like a treadmill for that
No dyno numbers no buy
