Title: Clipons AND a new can!! :D
Post by: visionthing on March 27, 2006, 11:33:53 PM
Guys,

The Clip-ons & Can I got from Tingate are on the bike and they both make a helleva difference.

The Clip-ons look great, good welds and only introduce a bit of vibration at freeway speeds. I'm really happy with them. I might even drop them a little further down.

The can is great too. Sounds large gives a great boost to mid-range and next step is to put in a K&N filter (on order) and pull out carbs.

The clip-ons were only $130 and the can was $350. Can't complain about the price either.
Here are some pics of my girl.

They look sweet especially the clip ons, does the pipe make a bg difference or just a little?
You may want to post them on the main board as a lot of guys are always looking for a good set of clip ons :thumb: :cheers:

Hey Vis,

Whats with Clipons? I would prefer my bars a little higher, would clipons help or only risers? anyway looks sweet, is the can louder than the stock?
Also in the market for a gear rack and sack, what do you have?

Yep, Ventura rack & bags are your best option. Gearsack bags are ok but thier racks are to bulky.
The rack, frame rails & large bag will set you back about $350-$380 but try the wreckers first.
