I'm running a Kerker with a carbon can now without any jet kit. I just shimmed the needles and the "Y", cleaned the K&N, and put 150 mains in it.

After setting the A/F and syncing it runs great and gets in the 40's for highway mileage and well into the upper 30's around town with sprited driving.

My bike was totally stock when I got it. It still had the brass plugs over the A/F screws at 3500 miles or so when I threw on a set of Marks Pipes. It ran good with no adjustments at all. It wasn't "perfect" but it ran good and the plugs looked decent. If anything it was a touch rich on the mains and touch lean on the needles. The worst case scenario would have been dropping a size on the mains and throwing in a shim on the needles but it ran well enough to leave it alone until I got a kit from Sean.

I have heard Sean and others say that there are no issues running an exhaust with no carb changes, that's why I wasn't afraid to go ahead and do it for awhile.

I don't really miss it at all. to be honest with you I forgot about it until you just mentioned it.

if I need to put it up to to any maint or anything, I just put a nice 2x6 on the ol floor jack and its up in the air.

The weight saving was pretty good too.

• Kerker pipe w/carbon can
• misc N2O solenoids and lines
• braced swingarm
• Frame braces
• 2 full 10 oz N20 aluminum tanks
• full tank of gas
• Full oil and water
• No center stand
• Wave rotors up front

My bike weighed in at 598lbs wet. The owners manual shows 624lbs wet.
26lbs lighter, not too shabby. Different rims would help even more

Well.....

I found a good deal on a Kerker.....and the temptation is strong.....:bang head:

But I really can't justify spending ANY money on the bike.....

I have a 9 year old that actually thinks HE should get something for Christmas:ummm:

The thought of permanently altering my bike has me more than a little concerned as well.....:confused2:

i hear ya man, but u can def do it in stages. minor modifications to the airbox after an exhaust, then buy a jet kit when you can afford it.

Well......I don't know what he would have thought.....:ummm:

I just hope he warms up to it because with any luck it will be his......

I hope he thinks having a Vmax that is the same age as him is cool.....and not just some old noisy thing that he doesn't have any interest in:confused2:


Another reason why I don't want to do anything to it that's permanent.....unk:
