    How many other 05s out there? Roll call

    Hey guys I know they made 2000 anniversary edition 2005s. Interested to see how many are members of the forum. Before all the purists are upset that I painted mine Yamaha blue. I picked up the bike 6 years ago and it was rough,extremely faded and oxidized. Plus I don't like red.

    "Opening up" supertrapp open end caps"

    Hey guys, I have supertrapp slip ons with open end caps and no discs on my max. Supertrapp states that open end caps are the same as runnin 10-12 discs and closed end caps.

    suggested jetting for my setup

    I know it has probally been discussed ALOT, but I am currently running supertrapps with open end caps, and was considering removing the Y on the airbox. From what I have read is that I should go down one size on the mains, and re sync and it should be good. Is that all there is to it? Where do I...
