After-Market Motorcycle Exhaust?

I installed an after-market exhaust can and pipe on my 1200 Bandit. Now I am told I need to report the 4 carbs in order for it to run properly(which it isn't doing since the installation). What I don't understand is why I would need to do this as opposed to re-adjusting the carbs instead. I was not looking for an increase in horsepower . . .I wanted a more streamlined exhaust and a little sound, as my exhaust can was very large and almost silent prior to that.

Generally you can get away with a "slip on" system without rejetting. For a full exhaust or in your case if it is causing issues you will need to install a jet kit. The new jets in your carbs will account for the more free flowing exhaust path and adjust the air fuel mixture being delivered to the motor.

IWhen I rode motorcycles i offered a tuned exhaust pipe put in it , had a overall performance grab placed on and then had the motorcycle tuned up. it somewhat is the final ingredient to do in case you propose to alter any production facility settings. the persons to direct your question too is a mechanic or the keep you purchase the exhaust from. a lot relies upon on what sort of motorcycle the bigger the motor the greater skill exchange an exhaust could make. I loved speedy motorcycles, and loud motorcycles, i'd desire to care much less what the law enforcement officers theory, i wanted human beings to pay attention me coming. We continually stored the inventory exhaust interior the storage, if we've been given a cost ticket , in basic terms placed the inventory pipes on sign the cost ticket off and decrease back interior the storage for the loud pipes 5 minutes upon getting the cost ticket signed off.
