    Looking for a bit of advice really...

    I've noticed a couple of times after finally doing some long motorway runs how much my blade vibrates..

    Now even though Sue might like it I don't :) but I don't have anything else to gauge it by as I'm pretty sure it's the BOSS can I have without a PC.

    Sometimes it's hunting on tickover too, the person I got the bike from said he wished he looked at other cans due to it feeling a bit rough but isn't that expected when coming from Stock?

    It goes ok but like I said I have nothing to go by nor anything to compare it too, I can't remember how the R1 with Yoshis was as opposed to having aftermarket from stock compares

    I'm considering putting the standard can back on to gauge but I love the sound of the aftermarket can.

    I'm not of an engineering mind nor do I have spare cash for anything either..

    What do you think?

    I have the Yoshi r77 on mine and the fueling feels out (say not exact) but i kinda like it because it feels (i Think) like a proper race bike sounds and feels.

    The majority of aftermarket cans will alter the fueling, mostly they run rich, you'll either need to get a power commander or go back to stock exhaust mate

    I have a BOS can on my 05 blade it seems to run spot on and I don't have pc fitted, it flies, I noticed straight after fitting that the engine felt stronger in the mid range, not much difference elsewhere but sounds better

    It's probably the bike rather than the can.
    I also find that my blade suffers from vibration, a characteristic of the bike.
    My right wrist has been suffering recently, initially thought it was due to motocrossing and a motocross accident I had 2 months ago. However when Im motocrossing my wrist doest hurt. However when I ride the blade my wrist seems to hurt. May be caused by wheeling the bike on a regular basis!!!
    I don't think that fitting the original exhaust will cure the vibration problem!!!
    Cheers

    Cheers mate...I like the sound too much to :)

    I'd like to eventually get something else on it with a PC but its just the lack of funds right now..

    Thanks for the replys lads
