Title: FS: Hindle Slip-on Exhaust
Post by: CliffHanger on April 15, 2009, 08:11:42 AM
I thought I would see if anyone is interested in this exhaust.
I bought it used for an airbox and pipe upgrade.

I am now planning on doing a full exhaust for the bike and I don't need it.

$75USD  -  Midpipe and hanger included (midpipe will need modification, or fab up your own)
Ontario shipping is $25
Canada wide is $38
US $48

Did you need to re-jet when using this canister?

Other can chime in, but I believe that whenever you change intake/outlet you will need to modify jetting.
Typical recommendation is to do both at the same time and rejet once.

I have a K&N lunchbox as well as jets that I was keeping for future use, but if you need them I can send the whole package for an additional fee.

I have a stock exhaust system that has a scratched and dented heat shield courtesy of the 1st owner and I was thinking that replacing the entire can with yours would be a quick fix. I like the stock intake system and wasn't planning to change and would prefer not to fiddle with the carbs. Been there with another bike and never was able to solve that riddle.

there's some contention on this subject, but I think the air filter determines if you need a rejet or not.  IF you keep the filter stock you don't need to rejet regardless of an aftermarket exhaust.

not to hijack the thread or anything, but anytime you change the airflow through the engine, you need to rejet to keep the mixture correct.  It varies from bike to bike wether or not the muffler/exhaust are restrictive enough to affect the scavenging in the cylinder.  Sometimes it is, sometimes it isnt.  I have ridden bikes that FOR SURE the muffler WAS restrictive enough and rejetting benefited the running.  I have never installed a slipon on a little gs, so i dont know for sure in this case. I'm sure there are plenty of others here who can share relevant experiences. My 2 cents...

Where in Ontario are you located? I woiuld like to take a look at what comes with the slip on to have an idea which parts need to fabricated.

Thank you

Stock is +1 - I'd do a +1 on stock.
On a pipe that +1 becomes more important.
Filter = +2 if its got seriously more flow and you still have the airbox.
K&N is the 150/147.5 +5-7 on mains.

The reason pipe does not make a huge difference is because the head is restrictive, the 90 degree bend out of the head is restrictive, and the idiotic single port, 1 valve is restrictive as well as the air filter/box side.
A pipe does flow more, but you're not going to get away from all the other problems that easy.
Cool.
