Thank you. I forgot I believe their springs are shorter than OEM. I'm vaguely remembering a convo I had with them before I purchased my V4 two years ago. You have to fill the fork with something right to account for the shorter spring?
 
I put the Db killers back in because the exhaust was too friggen loud for my tastes and neighbors with them removed. It's in the P-51 Mustang range with them out.

Do you have pics from the side? I actually like quieter bikes as I have really sensitive hearing. With the DB Killers in, is it quieter than or same as stock?
 
It's much quieter with them in and once the packing is broken in 200-400 miles it's nice.

Stock Db is what 95? These I think are probably 110 -114 Db?

Nearly every single aftermarket exhaust is louder I would assume. Phil does an OEM mod which I have read which is probably the best route to go if you want OEM look with a cool sound.

Nope, these are specifically made as Showa OEM direct replacement. They are a different size to stock K-Tech springs. Do not confuse the two.

110 with baffles in? And was low end throttle response and A/F issues resolved?
 
The T-800 works pretty well and cost WAS affordable a few months ago. I think I got it for around $320. Prices have climbed and a Bren Tune or other might be just as cost effective. There are a few YouTube vids showing the Db rating of this slip-on system.
 
^ The T-800 has been flawless on my V4 and my GF's V2. No issues with flat spots or throttle response.

I didn't know they were getting more expensive. Consider it comes with Termi exhaust systems, it adds quite a bit of value to them.
 
^ Oh, yea forgot to add that. Termi systems come with the T-800 Upmap, I was referring to the Arrow system on my GF's V2. Had to purchase separately.
