Re: Muffler Swap
I must say, that lately it seems like the anti mod group has taken a stand against those wanting to mess with their bikes.
I put my muffler on, what, a month or two after i got the bike ... which was a month or two after i bought the GZ (first bike). I don't remember anyone getting on my ass back then about the muffler swap i did. I didnt see anyone get on dudes ass about the bobber he built in another thread. What gives? Other than having to mess with mixture and what not ... the muffler swap is just that .... a pipe change. Which is a common thing when people buy a bike. If they fuck it up due to not researching this forum and asking questions, well then that is something they have to deal with. Most guys on here have been asking question after question trying to gain all the knowledge they can before tackling the job. I had nothing to go off of ... other than one crappy half assed write up and no one to talk to about it. Good for these guys wanting to do this kind of stuff! Not giving you shit WW, but you are starting to sound like an ex member that used to troll this board ..... :whistle: Login or Register to Remove Ads |

Re: Muffler Swap
Ouch ! Don't mean to sound like a broken record so I will try to rework my words. Tinker all you want but only after you have enough experience to have developed a baseline of knowledge.
For those interested : I have my own meds and experience to fall back on. LOL :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol: |

Re: Muffler Swap
It's not anti-modding...
No one gave you crap, Dupo, because you obviously know what you are doing. No one gave crap to the bobber/cafe guy because.... he obviously knows what he is doing. When a new rider shows up, thinking that to be "cool" they have to start modifying their bike right away, they need to hear a second opinion. They need to hear from the people who have done it and didn't like it. They need to also hear that some people don't consider a desire to mod as a prerequisite to motorcycle ownership. They can hear from the pro-modding guys too. That's why this is an open forum, right? |
