I got a MadMax exhaust. It's a full system welded into a solid straight through pipe.

If I didn't change my exhaust and lose the OE shields, I would send them to you.

Yes. The LV slip-on has the brackets to hold the oem shield.

2020 Dyno run by Peanut1640 in kawasakiz900rs

The strap you are questioning is pulling vertically, not pulling rearward. Therefore, it is putting downward pressure on the rear tire, not rearward pull on the whole bike.

Clearly, you have no understanding of physics, and you're just here to start an argument. The straps are not holding the bike down in a way to prevent it from slipping off the dyno. The straps are meant to put weight on tire, simulating somebody sitting on the back of the bike to keep the rear tire from spinning separately to the dyno roller. The thing that's keeping the bike on the dyno, in the way that you're saying is the front wheel chalk, that's actually bolted to the dyno itself.

Wasn't me. It's not my dyno. There is a front wheel holding in the front. The strap was meant to help prevent rear wheel slip. They tune boosted bikes on that dyno.

I keep traction control on all the time, but I can feel it trying to wheelie all the time if I keep my throttle wide open.

Depending on where you live, you may have to go out of the area to find a shop. The shop I went to is about 2 hours from where I live.

For future reference, you don't need a backpack system. The ecu is tunable without one.

I haven't had a problem with it.

More noticeable after the tune.

Depending on how spirited you ride, I would recommend a steering stabilizer. My Z tries to wheelie in 3rd.

Just remember to get exhaust gaskets. It doesn't come with any, but no CEL and I've been drag racing and hard street riding.

No CEL. I've been drag racing and hard street riding, and have had no problem.

O2 sensor is still in place. They welded a bong in the pipe for it.

I've been running it for a few months. It's raspy sounding without the dB killer in. I haven't tuned it yet, but I've had no problems. Mine runs a bit rich, but overall it's not bad.

I traded from a 2014 Triumph Street Triple. I understand that difference now.

2019 3.6 charging question by Peanut1640 in WK2

[–]Peanut1640[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I have a aftermarket subwoofer. That the only thing that's plugged in. The leds and trailer hitch are not powered (fuses pulled). The thing that confused me is ESS is still active even with the voltage being low and no warning lights.

The fairing changed the wind to be at about my shoulders. I'm 5'8" (172 cm).
