CES exhaust observations

I noticed your Foran combo already, some time ago. Looks unique, would be really interesting to see a dynochart. I guess hp numbers will be good as well!
Just wasn't aware you have mufflers on both sides. I do prefer stereo sound in general! :thumbsup:

Here's the other side.

That intake ... they would put me into jail or so for that, here in Europe! Remarkable.
I think your muffler solution is very decent. Like it a lot. It's a 1 off right?

I think you would find that if you were to talk to Trevor at CES he could make you up a pair of mufflers to suit your needs
 
Well Took the ole beast out into the country up the back of maleny and had a play,tight curves and long twisties,This was two up with the missus.Quite impressed with the way it goes and handles now,does not take long to wind her off the clock and still pulling hard and as for the twisties just a snack,wore the heels of my boots off.Did not get to run with my mates Turbo V rod (gotta a crook knee) so wont be on it for awhile.MMM now to get rid of that metzeler up front and go for a avon cobra to match the rear.and cant wait until next tax time so I can release all them little ponies.Im a happy chappy.
 
OK looks cool BUT what about performance does it flow as well as the 3 K&Ns ?

I don't know. There's a reason I'm using it and at the end of the day I just like it. When I first put it on it definitely felt stronger but it had a different filter on and did feel like it ran out of puff just before the rev limiter kicked in. With the big K&N it works much better. When I actually get to a dyno I might take the triples down too and check. Only takes a couple of minutes to swap over. Probably still use the intake in any case.

By the way, I also have a. 140ci embellisher on the oil tank. It doesn't make the bike any faster either. ;):laugh:
 
This CES system WITH expert dyno tune has completely transformed my motor. :thumbsup:
When I installed trip K&Ns, TORs, PCV+AT with HansO's tune the improvement difference was very noticeable.
Going to the CES with dyno tune was at least twice more that difference.

Most impressive to me is the increase and smoothness of the torque curve which gives me better throttle control through the twisties. Second would be the huge, over a 1000 RPM extension of the HP curve. Third would be the overall across the board (2500 to 6800 RPM) performance improvement. Getting up to and cruising at 80 to 90+ feels much more effortless. The Fourth would be the AWESOME sound of my engine, both going through the gears or buzzing down a highway at 80+. I now find myself on roads where I must keep below 80, shifting down to 4th just to hear the MUSIC!!!
I don't yet know about top end gains; BUT, I will state I ran my speedo up to 135 mph in 4th before shifting into 5th and it buried before I had to back out!
I did burn holes in the right calf area of my Dickies and waterproof riding pants. I do feel the heat from the engine on the right side more than before. SO WHAT!!! I requested the top of the muffler come out at the rear axle. It is about 2" higher than that which required me to leave my right side pannier home for my 1000 mile inaugural ride. I shall fix this somehow by altering the stainless pipe leading to the muffler.
If you are looking to get more out of your Rocket and willing to spend the moola, skip the TORs or other slip-ons and go for the CES System. You WILL NOT regret the decision.
Thank You Trevor and Leslie!!!
:thumbsup::thumbsup::thumbsup:
PS: My tuner says it IS the comparative graphic improvements on the dyno that really count and not the actual amount of the readings which vary all over. I pondered this for a moment . . . Sorry, @Bat; but I just ain't buying that 169 on a stock engine! Nevertheless, you win! :D
Glad I had the opportunity to hear the CES setup. Alsome sound. A must have item.
