just got the new exhaust put on yesterday, and have a mid pipe fitment issue to work out. right side mid pipe fit perfectly, and the left side has about a 1/8 inch between it and the lower outside of the chain. too close for my liking! gonna call KRtuned today and see if I just got a bad mid, or if they didn't do their R&D. I upgraded the exhaust to the KRtuned carbon fiber slip ons, and the levers to pazzo shorties, the rest is going to be the same as before.

Called KRtuned today and all I have to say is FUCK them! They won't stand behind their work. They discontinued the pipes and my guess is cause the mid pipe doesn't fit right. Thank god motosport is awesome to deal with on things like this.

Doh!
I'v seen more crashes in that corner then any of the others. People either lowside about halfway into it or highside quiet spectacularly on the exit. I just about flung myself once running CCW on the exit, thought I was all good and romped on it. Bike went sideways so fast both feet came off the pegs, I did a 3 min lap after that, lol.
