evfz Posted May 29, 2015 Share Posted May 29, 2015 Just purchased the liquid graphite one week ago and have parts lined up for mods/installs this weekend. Yosh exhaust, PCV, and shorty levers all set to go. More parts expected next week. I've owned many motorcycles, most recently, a DL650. I'm enjoying this nimble, light weight torque machine!

evfz Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 Welcome and I'm from NorCal myself...used to live in grass valley..Thanks for the welcome. NorCal616, I know Grass Valley well...I live near Auburn. Are you still up this way? Couldn't help myself this morning, so got up at 5am and installed the Yoshimura exhaust. Took about 1 hour. Can't start it yet because it's still too early! I'm going to run this on the seat of the pants dyno for a while to see if adding the exhaust causes a loss in torque or lean stall issue before I unbox and install the Power Commander.

evfz Posted May 29, 2015 Author Share Posted May 29, 2015 Definitely going to install PCV after my ride into work this morning. A/F needs some tweaking after exhaust install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Premium Member norcal616 Posted May 29, 2015 Premium Member Share Posted May 29, 2015 Yes! Highway 49 is a nice cruise... I used to live a quick 3 min walk from the Dew Drop Inn off of CA-49... 2015 fz-07- Hordpower Edition...2015 fj-09- 120whp- Graves Exhaust w/Woolich Race Kit- tuned by 2WDW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
evfz Posted May 30, 2015 Author Share Posted May 30, 2015 Yes! Highway 49 is a nice cruise... I used to live a quick 3 min walk from the Dew Drop Inn off of CA-49... 49 through Cool to Placerville is a fun ride. Just took bike out for test ride after install of PCV with map from Dynojet. Bottom end is back, no more deceleration popping, and throttle response is excellent. Anyone who says that fuel management add on is not necessary with Yosh exhaust is leaving power and ridability on the table! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My family is going on vacation in Ludington this July. My wife's family is from Chicago and would gather in Ludington each summer when she was a kid. Neat spot!
