I hope my emails don't come across like a jackwagen. Your having fun, I just thought I'd save you some trouble. See your 72 CB 750 I'd chop into a cafe racer, and people don't agree with that I'd just figure tuning and modding intake and exhaust doesn't work out well but now I see its

Maybe I'm misunderstanding what removing baffles is. My guess is your removing pretty much the inside of the mufflers. There is the tube with all the holes in it and a ring to support it. Some might be offset tubes. But basically I'm thinking it becomes a open megaphone if you remove the

If I do anything with exhaust, I'll get a 4-into-1. However, I'm not enthused about the potential of rejetting. Sent from my iPhone > On Sep 3, 2016, at 10:41 AM, 'Ross M. Jamison' via Nighthawk Motorcycle > Lovers! wrote: > > Javier, > > Thank you. Once

Javier, Thank you. Once again I doubt I will remove the baffles. The owner 2nd back from me, had pulled the baffles & drilled them. Tell you a story. Back in February March, I was working on my bike and the cheapie rear axle lift, bent a tab and dumped my bike over. I tried to lift it myself

Ross, have you looked at the Tim Hodge's mod? Instead of completely removing the baffles, you can drill a series of holes if increase air flow which also results in a somewhat different tone. You should be able to find videos in yourtube. Javier. On Sat, Sep 3, 2016 at 10:47 AM, 'Ross M.

While I am not voting for removing baffles or even worse a straight pipe, I don't think the factory setup is for optimal performance. In fact, most Japanese bikes come pretty lean from factory to meet emissions regulations. Rejetting and adjusting the carbs will give you better performance even

Yeah! It's pretty much like a Honda Civic, open it up, make it loud. Jetting and opening exhaust does not add HP, you are moving the power band. You have to do internal engine mods to add HP. I agree do what you want, but it's a waste of time and screws up a bike that was already dialed
