Either a pair of doctor hondas...or a drawing if anyone has ever measured them? Seems they are almost unobtanium now.

Been running a pair of Jesse Scullys 3d printer stacks for months and love them... smoother low to mid range and no loss of top end power. Jason (Lucifer) has been running them for some time too and he loves them too

Let us know what you think .
I noticed an improved mid with much less vibration.
My bike vibrated at 4500 Rpm and when I fitted the tubes with a Burnie Morgan mod air filter things got a lot smoother.
I had to Resynch the carbs when I fitted them and like most other things I have done to my VTR there was a measurable difference.
One of the reasons I love this bike !

Coarse finish is better for air flow. It keeps air in the pockets of roughness. Air flows faster over air than a smooth surface. Its the same as the old story with ported and polished heads. All the benefit of polishing is it make them more money. A rough surface flows more air as long as its not excessively rough
