Yeah, I'm not a fan of packing only mufflers. There needs to be some sort of mechanical baffle in there. Which there will be on the new one.

Typo or price gauging maybe? The blue price looks correct to me.Was poking around last night for T7's.

ya, no idea. I mean....do people want the black color THAT bad?
as of late, its really taking everything I have to not just drive down with the trailer and pick one up.
So, which one of you hooligans has tested top speed. Mine maxed at 110. I think the bags and gearing are not helping. Ditching the bags is probably worth 5mph. It has 1 up on the front sprocket, I didn't look at the tack but I'm pretty sure it was nowhere near readline. Stock gearing may make it a little faster but the lowered RPM's on the highway are nice. The trusty old KLR would go 102, so I was expecting more from this.
Cruising at 90 in Texas, mileage was under 30mpg. That acerbis tank is going to come in handy......

No clue what it tops out at. If you were looking for a fast bike, the T7 was a bad choice for you.

I know, but the DR650 is running just fine.
Looks like they need a new web content person.Was poking around last night for T7's.

10.5 is correct for the 7, i’m guessing the 16.2 is for the S10 and they use the wrong pic.

ah, never even thought of that. you're probably right.
So, that egay muffler is slightly smaller in diameter than the Camel one.
Shouldn't make to much of a difference. Core size is the same, packing useful life should be about the same. I'm going to rock it for now, not the longterm solution I had in mind.

My Huzar is holding up great and is very quiet.
New header versus stock header.
So I lost 4.1# there. Welded all the slip joints after I had it mounted up. Fuck leaks.
Took the easy route and threw the new muffler on with the old mid pipe and mounts.
We'll see how it sounds tomorrow. I have everything swapped over to the Acerbis tank, just need to mount it and fill it.

Q : Now that it is welded, will you still be able to get it off the bike ?
Yes, it still has slip connections at the mid pipe just like stock. The runners slid into the collector, those got welded. There was a short tail piece from the collector to where the stock header ended, it got welded on. Now it's one piece just like the stock head pipe. You can see the slip joints in this pic.
Since the old panier mounts were made the cheapest way possible, time to make them a little better looking as I move them in. New counterbored mounts instead of the flexy flat tabs.
They will get trimmed to length and a angled relief cut on the top side when I figure out where everything is going to land.

Lost about 5-1/2" of width, looks like more, but that's what it measures out.
Current weight with hardware.
Previous weight with hardware.
So about a 2# reduction. And it's also much stronger with the short 10.9 hardware versus the extra long 8.8's that went through the spacers.
Thinking of an aluminum heatshield for the muffler, we'll see how that goes.

nice, PLS tell us more about the welding tables you have over at the Welding and Fabrication threadLost about 5-1/2" of width, looks like more, but that's what it measures out.
