Default Just added the FMF apex exhaust

i just finished up adding the apex exhaust. It fit perfect.
the video posted awhile back where the tip was touching the lower fairing does not happen on the one i got.

Wow the stock exhaust must be 25 pounds or something. The new i think is like 6 pounds. it's crazy how much of a difference there was in weight.

Sounds amazing vs my stock exhaust.
i'll post a short video on it later tonight.

I have the video on Youtube of the FMF exhaust, and its touching the plastics. I have been able to take care of the problem, but it seems to keep moving back up. But, its not touching anymore.

Where have you guys got maps from? I seen something about a plug that goes to the ECU and you can change the parameters on a computer, but I just dont know that in depth technical stuff. What is everyone else running.

I just ordered my cables for the tune ecu and my SLS block off kit from http://www.dualsportwarehouse.com. I would never pay a dealership to do anything to my bike, unless its warranty stuff.
