So I do some off roading with my bike.... Poor exhaust couldn't hang and its only a month old with just over 3k on it. Finding the high center point initially started the crack. I never would have thought that it was so fragile. The whiet mark is from this afternoon. doing about 80 down a sidewalk and jumping off a rather large curb. Bottomed that b*tch out right in the concrete bus stop. The fun is worth it.
Maybe the tax return fairy will bring me a new pipe?
I posted this just to get the mixed remarks and man did i accomplish that! haha THANKS
@Moosestang: I weigh 160lb wet.
@Mac_inger: It has a weird echoy sound 'round 4k
@Doosmie: Alright dude, you caught me on the cape. Crap, now everyone knows
@Westmoorenerd: I believe GAS properly described it in the fuel economy thread... My buddy was in a car on the street and i was WFO mowing down school children still getting 35mpg lol
@Mountainstorm: It was set for the 190-210lb rider from the factory, which i didn't like. Now its set for the <170 and feels much better to me. Should I do something different???
@Illbuell: I am happy you understand. My next plan is to hit up the local Supermoto track then go to the full Supercross and teach bubba a lesson!
hehe love it! inside every street bike is a little ornery dirt bike screaming to get out! I've gotten my Ultra stuck in mud floorboard deep (oops but man it was fun)
one question though, did you happen to utter the phrase 'here hold my beer and watch this!' before your little voyage?
My buddy has a GSXR SIX that he is tryin to turbo and we were on our way to work on it ... I had just finished a coors light and said let's go! There's is always fun involved in our journeys. Never a dull moment. He happened to be ridding in a car this time so I was being an azzhole of a rider giving him a little show
Captain I have nothing against what your doing. It's your bike. But why beat the crap out of a 1125 like that. They make dirtbikes for that sort of thing. It's like taking a sports car mudding.

As one of the people that have taken an 1125 off road, I can say its a hell of a lot of fun. Dualsport tires and a set your suspension super soft, you could go anywhere a Uly can
He just is exploring his bike in ways many others haven't. If you want to play, you got to pay, and at least a muffler weld will be cheap.
I wouldn't call beating the crap out of it... Everyone know there is little ground clearance. Plus the stock pipe is hella ugly anyway... This is just a reason for me to get a new sexy pipe! That I won't beat the crap out of. I do have a CRF450 that I ride on the street lol. Insurance is not to bad @ 500 a year. Keep it light guys! Its all in fun!
My new hair cut video....LMAO there's another one on youtube.com.. I can't believe there are guys out there that dress and act like that.. My friends from FL and KS say there are lots of them... BAHAHAHAHA Douche bags...
Well you are one lucky guy only weighing 160 lbs. No wonder you are stunning the bystanders on that 1125r. Imagine an 80 pound sack of blubber strapped on your midsection and you'll understand why guys like me don't do that stuff
