Weekend Mods
Ok, so I have finally decided it is time to strip her down and do some mods. I currently have a 2bros slip on. I have been getting annoying backfire every time I let off the throttle. I picked up the $2 assorted washers at Radio Shack today. I am planning to tear the bike down maybe this weekend. I know I need to take the Kleen Air out. (hopefully this will get rid of the backfire) or I am coming to HI and looking for KKim j/k. But I am thinking since I am pulling the kleen air out, I might as well shim as well. Anyone have any other recommendations to do? I want to do everything all at once. Can I pull the snorkel as well? I may pick up the pods but that might be another day. Please let me know if I should/can pull the snorkel out and anything else I should/can do at this time.
Thanks in advance for your feedback! |

pull the snorkel and shim with 3 washers as you pull the Kleen system to cure the backfiring.
Do this and you'll be coming to Hawaii, all right... but to thank me. |

ok, my next (blonde) question is I bought the 100pack assorted washers from Radio shack. How do I know which washer is the 3mm to use?
Kkim: should i just put 3 washers and call it a day? How come I was reading and everyone was saying 2 or 3? whats the difference? (I am still a noob) |

Ok so you said 2-3 for aftermarket can and snorkel removed too. So I am guessing I am good with 3 washers.
Side note: Is the K&N R-0990 in your sig, the air filter? if so, is it worth getting? |

for now, just do the mods you plan.
the 0990 filter requires that you pull the airbox... it is not the same as the drop in filter. |
