2005 exhaust options

[Paul Bryant]

All will fit your bike.

D&D
CES
Reband
Paul something here on the boards
Carpenter
Zard (lol at prices)
And there are a few other shops doing them.

Claglyver, that "Paul something...." is PAUL@VIKINGEXHAUST.COM

Willy, have a look at my facebook page www.facebook.com/vikingexhaust I make several different systems for the Rocket.
Drop me an E-mail to paul@vikingexhaust.com

Here's one of the Kits that I build.
This is a "slip on" Single Silencer to the standard header.

Yeah, I was checking out your page. Looks like some pretty nice work. Any idea what kind of hp gains there are with the single silencer?

 

[TriumPhil]

Paul does brilliant work, fellas'! There's no faulting his craftsmanship.

Very nice looking. How does the back pressure compare with 3 tors with a cat bypass. The question is how would someone tune it? Most of the stock and custom tunes out there are for different configurations.

This single Silencer set up would flow way better than the TORS CAT Delete, when you look at the "U" turn that the exhaust has to make to get to both R/H side Silencers.
The fact that the TORS CAT Delete is way less restrictive than the stock box it will of coarse perform better, but not as much as a proper free flowing system.
We set this one up with a PCV&AT with a base map from Hanso, so it will set itself to suit the way the rider rides.
A "good" dyno operator would set it up easily enough, the problem is getting a "good" dyno operator that actually does know what he is doing.
The term "back pressure" falls into the same category as "triple chrome plated" there's no such thing as "back pressure"

As I often say, when looking at an exhaust system, imagine you are sitting on your bike on the inside of the pipe at the head, now give it full throttle.
How many times do you have to slow down, change directions or make a "U" turn ?
Take the stock header for example, the center and rear cylinders hit a major "T" intersection shortly after leaving the head :-( the front cylinder is O.K. (once the exhaust has gotten past the casting at the head)

Specifically Willy, no, but it would be significantly better than stock.
I've not done any Dyno runs with this set up.

Hmmm. Not a mechanic but if you say flow better, then flow worse implies a restriction, while implies higher pressure. If you plug up the end, the pressure goes way up, no? A supertrappp has an adjustable end cap for that reason, no?

 

[juice_man_86]

I think it's more about velocity than it is about free flowing. You want the exhaust to be drawn out, not just emptied into the atmosphere. Too big is not ideal.

A few people think that the SuperTrap disc system is a gimmick.
Less disc's fitted cause's a higher restriction, and makes it quieter.
More disc's fitted flows easier, but is noisier.
Note that SuperTrap supplies a "performance" disc, what is this ? a disc with a wopping big hole in the center.
So if you have this fitted, what's the point of any other disc's at all ?
