Guest St3mpy Posted October 3, 2008 Share Posted October 3, 2008 Thanks for the compliments! And sorry I havn't answered your questions, I've been busy with school and such. Will I try a different exhaust? Probably not, unless some unexpected cash flow comes my way. Even then, I'm very happy with the sound of the bike as it is, mainly to do with the "BS'ing" of the 4th gen collecter to the 6th gen tail pipe. These's a 1/4 inch or so gap from the 4th gen collecter to the top of the "slits" on the 6th gen tail pipe. The noise that comes from there gives the bike a nice throaty sound, yet it's still quite enough to pass as a stock sound. That's important to me, since I absolutely hated the noise level that came from the D&D that was on it before hand. The only reason I would go with new cans would be for weight reasons. If you look below this thread, find the "frankviffer Texas style" thread. Fotomoto put carbon cans on his 4/6th gen bike. Anyways, I gotta run! Thanks again.

Member Contributer FotoMoto Posted May 6, 2009 Member Contributer Share Posted May 6, 2009 Speaking of the gas tank, how did I mount it? Well, the subframe didn't come with the gastank bracket, and I couldn't find one. But, I HAD to have this thing on the road, so how did I do it? Zip ties. The back of tank is zip tied MANY times to the gastank mounting hole/tube. When the bracket get in (no one had it in stock), I'm going to cut the mounting tube off the tank and weld the tap to the seem (if you are familiar with the tank, you know what I'm talking about). Once I do this, I *should* be able to mount the tank the stock 6th gen bracket. Along with this, I'm still waiting on the side covers to come in, and I also have to mount the license plate (it's just zip tied too). After that, I should be done This is why I didn't do mine this way. Welding. Gas tanks. Not for me! :dry: I preferred making a couple of brackets with longer bolts and it's been working fine for the past couple of years. I know of at least a couple of other folks working on their versions as I speak. Modded 4gens are the perfect future! Prepare to be assimilated. :biggrin: St3mpy hasn't logged in since Nov.

SLO97VFR Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I hope its school and not the bolts giving out?? Does look a bit scary and If I am to do it I think a welder will come in handy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Phantom Posted May 6, 2009 Share Posted May 6, 2009 I missed this back when it hit the board too... nice mod! Looks really good with the stock 4th Gen tanks and fairings. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
