And please check for air leaks with the slip-ons. I had a pair of Roadhouse slip-ons a couple of years ago and had the popping. Turned out to be the pipes weren't on tight enough. jmho.
Very good advice!

Exhaust leaks can be detected with a lit cigarette or incense.

ok, Im really bad at this.. what does the cigarette do, I also a bit nervous taking the AIS off of the bike. It should be there for a reason correct? Also it is already plugged which should be doing the same thing. I cant see how removing it is gonna benefit me. |

The smoke around the leaky area will be pushed around some, it should be quite obvious. And no, a single plug is not all it takes to seal the AIS. There are connections at each head that need to be sealed, as well as vacuum port. All the ais is to dump a predetermined amount of air into the pipes, but its for stock pipes. As a few said, just pipes, the existing computer has enough room to make adjustments for pipes only mod.
