Who's Rocket is this?

[canecorso]

Ok that’s too much money and work.
What if I just did Neville’s lush cams and tune high competition pistons , and I have jardinds full exhaust 4040 K@N filters and tune boy, what hp and torque will I be looking at?
And how much would just that cost?
And does it change the sound any more?
Is it even louder?
Does it sound more nasty aggressive?
Where does this guy have his shop?

I would guess about the190ish hp. I have all the above with the full Reband system and get 201hp

 

[canecorso]

Wow that’s nice power.
And for that power how much did it cost you?
And when you did it does your bike sound any different?
Is it louder?
Sound more aggressive?
Do you notice all that extra power just pulling away normal like holly **** a huge difference? Or you need to pull away fast to feel it?
I’m just going back and forth to do this or just get a 2017 Boss hoss they made them more sleeker less bulky even the radiator is even smaller they our Rocket don’t know Why Triumph didn’t do this

Oh here’s a picture

@canecorso I wonder about your fixation on sound -- that is so subjective, and almost impossible to translate over the internet (same with gunshots and rattlesnake rattles), and the sound is NOT related to the mechanical mods made.

So you have two (at least) questions going -- one appears to be a cost-effective (to you) increase in power [BTW, I too like what Neville Lush Racing offers].

The other appears to be changing the sound to something other than stock, and there are many threads on this site about that, and a number of sources for aftermarket exhaust.

Of course, the two can be related, in that some options for power adjustment will involve ensuring the exhaust (and intake for that matter) is changed to allow for a given modification to work as intended.

If you are intent on changing the power, you need to address that first.

Once settled on that, you will know if the exhaust (and intake) need to be changed, and if so, that will define your trade space for what systems are available that will meet the requirements of the power work.

Isn't this fun ?

Paul I think you miss understood me It’s not the money I just don’t want to go over board and do too much modifications to engine and then have problems.
So just wanted to change pistons cams and keep my Jardines I like the sound.
But wanted to know from people that did that modification that has the Jardines , that it sound even meaner or more nasty then it was just with the Jardines. Or made no difference in sound.

 

[Joesmoe]

I see that now. Have fun !

I have not made these changes on the Rocket yet but I have on other makes of motorcycles. Changing pistons will not changes sound much and cams only a little. Just MO.

I am waiting till after the RAA East before changing my bike up. I want to meet some folks in person and hear their machines. I find it difficult to asses sound on the videos off the web.

 

[canecorso]

This is true videos don’t sound the same as it does in person, so please let me know.

I will answer this question the best way I can.
I had the engine work done etc and dynoed with my Reband headers/CES Muffler at 223hp, i swapped over to the FULL Jardine system while i was making a heat shield for the Reband system - this gave me a bit more torque but stole high rev horsepower. I then decided to keep the Jardine system on BUT Change to the CES Headers (Sweet sound of horses running wild) Then decided to get dynoed again and now 232hp. So to answer your question is not a straight answer sorry mate.
If you ONLY changed cams (Not under bucket shims, springs, retainers, head porting) you wont have the same power.

got it...thanks I stay where it is at.
