some slight mods since i was on here 2 years ago. not finished but rideable. needs paint and a seat cushion made which are in progress. aprilia rsv4 race tail with led strip tail light. ktm dirt bike headlight without fairing. cut off cat and welded a m4 gp muffler directly to pipe. was super...

finally pulled my fz8n project back out. and did some work on the custom tail

i lost my license for 6 months and when i got it back i felt like i couldnt rev the bike as i was really paranoid of speeding. i found wearing earplugs helped. but i have a custom M4 pipe that is loud. i also ride to work at an average speed of 60kph and its a 5 mins ride and i sit at about 3 to...

gave mine a somewhat proper clean today. trying to decide if i goto carbon fibre body work or not. also need to look at a nicer seat for longer km's

ive noticed some people saying there hp from stock is in the 90's ? here the fz8n stock has 106hp, well on paper anyway. is this correct or did I read wrong and would it be due to the higher octane.

for me personally im not to fused about hp gains. I would just prefer to adjust the fueling and flies as I can tell they are affecting my low down smoothness. if someone can find out if guhls would sell flashed ecu's rather then taking one in then I could buy one I guess also here in...

so im guessing my best option is to get a power commander or something. I basicly want to cut down my flies and adjust fueling so I don't run lean. I have airbox mod ais and exhaust mod. it seems atm when I take off the flies are restricting the airflow until about 2.5 to 3k rpm. after that it...

the guhls seems to be more indepth from what I have read. I still don't understand it all. is the ecu flash done in conjunction with a separate unit for fuel tuning?

for those that are interested in the M4 gp pipe on our bikes i put together some short video clips to give an idea of the sound. note that this exhaust is custom welded on and cant be purchased for the fz8n. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GxySZ4ZW0rY&feature=youtu.be

M4 gp pipe but custom made for the fz8 as they don't offer one. for mirrors I have a single crapy bar end from ebay. in Australia u only legally need 1 lol.

what did u want pictures of sorry ? the actual welds or the pipe on the bike. if you look in the ride pictures section a few posts down my bike is in there. as for welds I can take some pictures when I get a chance. what year is your bike.

the m4 gp pipe I designed to work mostly with bikes like gsxr that have the main muffler underthe bike. I did the same on my 2011 bike and just cut the part of the stock pipe that joins and welded them together so the pipe fit like stock. on the 2013 the pipe was different so we just cut the...

a few from this morning. got some video of the exhaust but will have to wait till I have a chance to put it together.

for the M4 u have to grab it from another bike. its only the mid pipe that is different im sure and u weld it onto a new mid pipe for the 8. I wouldn't buy brand new as its like $500 for just the reverse cone muffler and u still need to fab the pipe and in the end its not 100% designed for the...
