Also check out this YouTube video. Got my signals blinking.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pYGcEmpisWA they tail light doesn't look as smooth as I thought it should. Would a different relay help that? Or does it look OK?

OK, let me know, oh wait...

Much more mellow than the 2bros was. I like it, a lot. You haven't even seen the new ride, yet... You in Lakeland or Tampa these days?

caps · July 4th, 2011, 02:45 PM

Tampa my man, and I was just in Kissimmee the other day

Reddoak · July 4th, 2011, 02:46 PM

Nuts. I was killing time riding around yesterday. Swung down Boggy Creek to Narcossee on a bigger loop....

matha028 · July 4th, 2011, 02:53 PM

Awkward...
What didn't you like about the 2 bros? I want a new exhaust. But nothing to crazy

It was very harsh sounding. Especially with no sound suppressor. Without the tip, it was uncomfortable to ride for more than 45 minutes or so. On the highway, I tended to wear earplugs.

The power tip kills off a lot of the harshness, but it's still a pretty loud pipe.

Reddoak · July 4th, 2011, 04:00 PM

Screw it, it's too nice a day to sit at a keyboard, I'm going for a ride now...

I don't have your number, mine is posted on my facebook page.

MrEmmortal · July 4th, 2011, 07:39 PM

When are you guys coming over to the beach? Or at least, the east side of Orlando? My @$$ will be sore if I road over to the Tampa side of things.

I am always on the East side of Orlando.

Ahh yes I think I remember that, Too many late night postings. Still up tonight because someone in the neighborhood has extremely loud fireworks.

matha028 · July 4th, 2011, 08:23 PM

MrEmmortal: check out our 250 group on meetup. Pretty much the same as the thread name. Or I think the link is on the card mat made. We umm are going to Lakeland this week, that's the plan. Last week we did Kissimmee. If we get people all over the place we can make the group outings be from Tampa to A beach. Assuming we get people from different areas. Hopefully keep it to central Florida area. I mean I'm not riding to Sarasota or anything. But Tampa/Lakeland/Clermont/east Orlando/south Orlando/sanford wherever. But we want this meetup group of 250s to grow.

Now to answer the question about exhaust, I dunno. I currently have my fender not sure how long or what I want to do with it. So an exhaust although nice price (if i heard correct) is out right now Darrell. But a slip on easy to install might be nice. Not too loud but a little louder than stock. I don't wanna piss people off when I leave for work at 4:30 in the morning.

matha028 · July 4th, 2011, 08:26 PM

Oh yeah I forgot to say davenport in my list of cities. I like the idea and concept of like the plan this week. Meet up in small groups locally then travel to a middle destination. Like we
Had discussed, might if the new girl Ali decides to go have to meet her in davenport/championsgate then continue on to Lakeland. Hopefully the guy from Lakeland will join the group. Anyone from Tampa-Daytona can join let's say. And anywhere in between.

lonewolf05 · July 5th, 2011, 06:09 AM

Adam there is someone selling a plmfg full exhaust... For 100 bucks shipped and it is loud since its what I had before I did the in undertail. That is a good price for a full exhaust get Ur moneys worth out of that rather than a slip on.

lonewolf05 · July 5th, 2011, 06:11 AM

BTW we can all help with the install and I have taken my bike entirely apart and did the jet kit install and exhaust install so I have some good knowledge to work on these bikes

matha028 · July 5th, 2011, 07:09 AM

to loud is not good. Just a little rumble or light roar.

lonewolf05 · July 5th, 2011, 09:11 AM

sorry it ISN'T loud, it has a nice purrr sound... mine is loud now since I chopped like 12" off the muffler. Youtube the exhaust http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=UCRmPiGI9z4

matha028 · July 5th, 2011, 09:50 AM

Is that a different exhaust than Josephs?

caps · July 5th, 2011, 11:06 AM

yes it is

matha028 · July 5th, 2011, 11:48 AM

Oh ok.
Cuz on youtube it wasnt to loud.

matha028 · July 5th, 2011, 12:29 PM

ScooterDepot.us has 250cc Choppers. $2000

caps · July 5th, 2011, 12:41 PM

I see im not the only one seeing those stupid ads...

matha028 · July 5th, 2011, 12:44 PM

I think I like the M4 is it any good?

caps · July 5th, 2011, 12:49 PM

i have no personal experience with it

lonewolf05 · July 5th, 2011, 12:58 PM

adam the m4 is pretty pricey... like 460 for a slipon or 550 for a full exhaust...if you plan to spend that much Area P has a race exhaust that is supposed to be good for around those prices but you have to remove your passenger pegs.

lonewolf05 · July 5th, 2011, 12:59 PM

and honestly the full exhaust is much more worth it bc i did the same thing i got the growler thinking eh a slip-on is good enough for me but then i wanted a full exhaust to try and get the most power out of the bike and make it a lil more fun
