Ayesully810 Posted May 10, 2017 Report Posted May 10, 2017 I know! But are the 916's better than Pro Circuits? I have FMF Fatty's, Pro Circuits and T5's I can sell to buy a new set of pipes. Are there any differences between the Alien vs 916's other than the obvious? I'm not sure how I feel about the center exit exhaust. 916s are the most badass looking pipe ive seen and they look sick I would like to ride a set one day Quote
SandSlingerOR Posted May 11, 2017 Report Posted May 11, 2017 One of these days Id like to go to cam's and dyno a set of pc,dmc,fmfs and see if itd be worth switching pipes on my small motor. Quote
ClaudeMachining Posted May 11, 2017 Report Posted May 11, 2017 916, are imho, the best sounding pipe. Quote

Strm Trpr Posted May 19, 2017 Author Report Posted May 19, 2017 Well, I gave it a slow primer kick and then gave it a good kick and it fired right up and purred. I let her warm up, sync'd the carbs and set the idle to ~1,550rpm. 48 pilots JJH needles middle clip 155 main Air screws are 3/4 turns out in 90* weather. I ride in 60-80* weather, so I'm going to put 50's in. Runs great, pulls clean throughout the power band. It's blowin the stock tires off on the country road. I can't wait to get her to the sand and let this 21x12x8 8 paddle extremes really get the traction down. I'm letting her cool down then I'm gonna check the torque on reeds, head and cylinders. I have a little clutch drag, but I think I dial that in at the perch. I'll have more later tonight. 2 Quote
Strm Trpr Posted May 20, 2017 Author Report Posted May 20, 2017 50 pilot was the ticket! Woke the bottom end to mid range up! Air screws are at 2.5 turns out, but I'm anticipating turning them in once I get to Pismo in the cool dense ocean air. Had to retune idle and sync. Dialed in part throttle sync now and it flat out rips. Pulls through the power band strong and smooth. Tomorrow morning in the cool air I'm gonna verify the tune and plug chop the mains. Right now the mains are 155's and the JJH needles are on the middle clip. 1 Quote
