i did have a casualty since adding this beast of a pipe. im not blaming the pipe in any way even tho i am kind of certain it was the main cause, but i will point the finger in chinas direction. cheap crap pot metal junk! my fuel shutoff valve, only 2 weeks old, broke off.. like only 2 threads left on the valve and 20 others inside my tank.. what a wonderful thing that is to try and stop while doing 40ish, one handed, traffic coming from behind, no sidewalk to escape to, all while $12.99/gal of sunoco gt plus 104 is pouring out all over the place.. luckily i was able to get it stopped and threaded back in. but wait.. theres more! it broke again later that night on my return trip. same circumstance.. wide open.. im thinking the resonance from the pipe, along with vibratrion and the poor quality of the valve led to its demise.. i put my old one back on.. swapped out the gasket inside of it with the one from the new donor and it leaks no more.. it rained heavy this morning so todays test ride is being pushed back until further notice. i also swapped the kx clone carb out for my oko 21mm.. tryin to see if it works better or if it even works at all.. never got the dio reed setup to run.. so im not even holding high hopes for this..
