na, I just started the thread before I went to the garage to put it on. Posted vids and pics when it was done.

I was curious if people would figure it out before the vid/pic though.

Yeah. Figured you, Gas, OSP, and FtBstrd would get it. Wasn't sure about the rest.

Funny, Odie still hasn't gotten back to me, so he must be having problems with his design.
Too late now

I'm still interested to see what he comes up with. There could be a CR in my future...more likely a XBS.

I am too. Last I talked to him, he was mostly redoing internals on the stocker. Wanted to keep same basic shape, but make it louder and lighter, as that is what many people were looking for. He wasn't real concerned with power gains so much as not losing any, and keeping the powerband smooth and linear.


For sure that should be cheaper than the Drummer, but well... I'm impatient.

Nice. I don't mind the shape or look of the stocker. It fits the line of the bike. And no power loss is a must.

It does fit, but I couldn't belive how heavy it was! A full 20 lbs!!

I should see if I can get it warrantied, as it is rusting badly, and then try and sell it.
