I had a play on one of gods own roads yesterday.
First time on it with the Storm.
Was awesome except for some light load fuelling issues that are improving but still a work in progress.

Hey mate, can you measure the length of your cans if you get a chance?

Bet they sound nice!

Bike is looking good by the way.

Thanks Ken. They're 350mm. About 11kg less than the debaffled cans. Sounds great.

I thought they looked short!

Mine are 450 long.

I read somewhere the shorter the cans the more gain up top.

What rev range do you ride in?

I have found lately when I am out with my crotch rocket mates that I seem to be using 4th gear a round the 6-8 rev range a lot more.

That does look good 2WA. I am fast becoming a fan of short fat cans.
Hmmmm wonder if I can get the stainies cut shortened & shut. But they're not fat. ( thinking out loud)
Where did you get your pipes from?

[2wheelsagain]

These cans are Delkavics guys. I had to have the LH link pipe nodded to clear the chain. Cost me a fiver at the local exhaust shop. Apart from that they're excellent quality. Got them from their eBay site located in Brisbane.

Ken they do move the power up a bit but not lost much off the bottom. Over 4k is good. Over 5k is better and over 7k just hang on. I'll be going -1 on the front soon so rpm will be better suited as well.

I'm still working on my fuelling but they were set for the debaffled stock cans and the Delks are an improvement on them. They sound great too.
