copycat

[ogre]

fine, call me a copycat, but i was really taken by infinitereality's busa, with the gixxer pipe. does anyone have gsxr experience, and can you tell me what kind of setup i need to make this valve function on my bike? also, can anyone recommend a 4-2-1 header?

ogre when you say gsxr experience do you mean bike story if so ive got a doozy lol

 

[ogre]

copycat, copycat..

ogre send him a pm and ask him, but I'm pretty sure its a Yosh header with custom mid pipe and just the Gixxer muffler no flapper involved as it's in the header of the Gixxer..

Send him a pm though as he's areally good guy and I'm sure he would help you out..

Mine are etched as well with my log in ID and a small kanji below..

thepushercg used to do the mod..

those mirrors are pretty rad. i actually pm'd him already, he said that he doesn't use the flapper. but i want to see if i can get it to work. it's ok, i don't have a yosh header to put on, so i'm thinking the mod will take awhile.

 

[BIG GUY]

Like you, I do like the way that pipe looks and those mirrors are pretty sick!!

 

[Merlot]

Look for pushercg he is the man for the mirrors

The valve in the midpipe on the gsxr1000's is controlled by the computer. It has a servo under the right rear of the tank on the frame. It has two cables attached, one to open, and one to close.
It's purpose was to make bottom end power more manageable, hence helping keep the front down under hard acceleration.
My old 02 1000 would ride a perfect 1st, 2nd gear 45mph wheelie when it was stock. After a full Yoshimura, it was so much harder to ride them that slow. The power came on so much harder, which I liked.
To each there own, but it seems like alot of work for something that will not give you a real performance gain.

i wasn't thinking about a gain, but being able to ride around sneaky style at lower rpms, then letting it scream up high
