Racing I installed my new muffler for my 650 from Two Brothers Racing on Wednesday. All I can say is it rocks. If you don't like loud this isn't for you. If you like power, than this slip on is for you. I will be putting it on a dyno hopefully next week and post the results on my web page. But the power increase is amazing. A quick throttle blast in second gear can knock you on your ass. When I cruise on the freeway at my normal throttle position I get 105 - 110 km/h depending on the wind. Yesterday at the same throttle position I was cruising along at 125 km/h. Just amazing (I know I've said that already). I have not done anything with my carb yet either. The noise is incredible. It reminds me of an article by Arne Larson in a recent edition of the Dual Sport News where he ranks different pipes according to noise level. This pipe must be right up there with the "Big Gun". Installation is a no-brainer. I'll post some pictures of the pipe on my web page as soon as my film is developed. For anyone looking at a new exhaust system I highly recommend this pipe.

When offroading , that's fine. But if there's no damping at all and you accelerate hard on the asphalt, the chain can give nasty jolts to the tranny, which can eventually break the tranny. Question : Is there some kind of damping system in the SE's clutch,which absorbs the jolts or has the factory beefed up the tranny gears on the 97 up SE's (I've heard that couple of XR 400 guys have broken their trannies,when accelerating hard on the asphalt.)

I finally broke down and ditched the piece-o-crap Quicksilver that has been plaguing my RXCs performance. And it was the best move (alright, maybe a little late) I've made with this bike. Got a DelOrto for $279 and had my local shop ( a GOOD one! Motorcycle Enthusiasts In Springhill, FL) install it for me. Add about 2 1/2 hour labor. So for a hair over $400, I've got myself a new bike! And I mean a new bike. It looks just like the one i dropped off there, but it runs completely different! Can you say OH MY GOD! different. It snorts! It rips! Best thing you can do to your RXC, baby! Go get one. You won't be sorry!

I guess that Suzuki decided that the positive traction that is the result of riding on asphalt was not as bad as was first thought so they just put the dirt version hub in the dual sport models from 97 up.
