what is it exactly and who has exhaust on their bikes.  I guess exhaust and re-jetting go together

johncam4

actually....first...what kind of exhaust have you guys used

scratch

Re-jetting is the replacing of the jets in the carburetors to change the air/fuel ratio. Changing the exhaust also affects the air/fuel ratio, thus you have to correct the change in the carburetors to compensate for the new exhaust.
The motorcycle is no longer the hobby, the skill has become the hobby.

Power does not compare to skill.  What good is power without the skill to use it?

good judgement trumps good skills every time.

octane

Along with jetting you'll also hear the terms lean and rich. Here's a little more on that: http://www.octaneonline.com/GSdyno.htm
