Custom, Tunable Supertrapp Slip-ons: Difference between revisions

Line 52:

After you have logged 100 miles or so, check your fittings.

The sound is a lot like the [[Two Brothers Racing ~~Exhaust~~|Two Brothers]] system, except it's a "rounder" sound with no "sharp edges", so to speak.

====Owner reaction====

After several rides: With five discs in each can, a properly tuned stock motor idles steadily at about 1300 rpm, has crisp throttle response off idle, and no flat spots. This seems to be a very happy bike.

Thanks to the hard rubber mounting fixtures to the rear peg brackets, there is virtually no vibration, and the stainless cans dissipate heat very effectively. Moreover, though the bike is louder than stock, it's not annoyingly so - one could still easily have an Ipod bud in one ear - and there are no unpleasant or jarring tones at any rpm. The bike's sound is reminiscent of a 90-degree V-twin... like a small-displacement Ducati Monster.
