Got it. Understood.As for diving, well now you know never to buddy with someone you don't know.
Yea, the internet forums only fuel the panic. Having said that, I will preemtively change mine this winter. My Calvin died (popped a pump hose) in the left lane of 95 outside Baltimore. Dumb luck would have it there were no trucks or cars between me and the right shoulder 4 lanes away. Not fun.
I think the issue is whether or not we really KNOW it is an issue.With only 1 (maybe 2) reports out of ~10k bikes, is it REALLY a problem? Or was ONE filter defective? Swollen isn't failed. Swollen isn't even a guarantee of a future failure.With the Cal-Vin fuel hoses we've heard maybe a dozen reports, and THAT is out of how many bikes? Maybe 100 or 500?The difference in percentage of reports per population is HUGE. I believe the Cal-Vin fuel hose swelling was a real problem.I'm not convinced on the fuel filter. Though I DID eventually replace it on the Breva, and will eventually do so on the V7.
Sounds like a good reason to drink a few cold ones. Let me know when you do, and I'll take a ride out.
Mike - I had the fuel pump out of my 2012 many times (adjusting the low fuel sensor). You don't need buy a gasket. It's a big heavy rubber thing.
Agostinis installed yesterday. Holy Crap! They're loud without the removable baffle!They're also a little too quiet with the baffles... Hmmm...Has anyone cut any length off the baffle to try and alter the sound ??
Which Agostinis did you get? I had the black ones on my Racer. They were OK. Did you order direct from Italy?
Yup. Those are the ones I had. The script/signature will rust.
Black reverse cone megs. Bought from AF1Racing.(pics of my bike to come)
Ok! The Agostinis have tunable sound!!This afternoon I hacked 1-5/8" off of the 3-5/8" DB Killers and got a nice compromise in sound. A little more of what I wanted, but still lots quieter than with them removed.No popping on overrun, and the bike seems to run great!
I say go w/ the sound level you like...but short shift out of the neighborhood.....I am respectful of others, but I gotta hear the music when alone....
Looking good! I do love the looks of those Agos. Before the baffle surgery, with baffles in how did they compare to the stock? Louder? Quieter?
I do have to say, though, that the stock exhaust had a nice little burble. Just too big, heavy, and shiny for me.
