Author Message   Titusand Posted on Friday, March 19, 2010 - 02:57 am:        Newbie Blaster here: why is the stock exhaust so unpopular?   Britchri10 Posted on Friday, March 19, 2010 - 06:41 am:        It weighs 15LBS, It does nothing for the power of the engine & it sounds like a lawnmower. On the + side: It looks good and it is fairly durable. The easiest mods for more power involve carb rejet, airbox/airfilter changes & an aftermarket pipe. (Just my 2 cents worth) Chris C   Kenster32 Posted on Friday, March 19, 2010 - 08:07 am:        PRO its quit durable looks good and you already own it CON its heavy and restrictive to the flow BUT change= $250 + jetting   Buellistic Posted on Friday, March 19, 2010 - 01:41 pm:        Because of it's "WEIGHT" and you have to know how to "TUNE" it !!! "i" hate repacking HIGH $$$.$$ mufflers when my OEM "PRODUCT IMPROVED" does the job for me ... "i" have a "REVERSE CONE MEGAPHONE" expansion chamber if "i" want performance and MAKE NOISE !!!   Titusand Posted on Friday, March 19, 2010 - 09:44 pm:        What do you mean "tune" it?   Ezblast Posted on Friday, March 19, 2010 - 09:47 pm:        lol   Buellistic Posted on Friday, March 19, 2010 - 10:31 pm:        Titusand: There are two kinds of BLASTERS, buyers of parts and tuners of parts !!! Make an opening(muffler) the same size as on the right rear as the left rear ... Put on exhaust wrap from the header to the muffler ... If you want to tune for top end put a larger header pipe from head to muffler, other wise leave it the OEM size which works best where you ride every day(RPM range) ...   Ezblast Posted on Saturday, March 20, 2010 - 12:40 am:        Thats good advice and added to that suggested list for stock improvements, to inexpensively upgrade the bike, though the header replacement would mean either knowing how to weld, or knowing/finding a welder who will take the job. EZ   Tbolt98 Posted on Saturday, April 03, 2010 - 09:57 am:        Can anybody scan and email me a Blast exhaust mounting diagram? I was tying to help a friend put a stock one on(has a Kerker now) and it seems like we are missing some sort of spacer or block in the rear.   Crackhead Posted on Saturday, April 03, 2010 - 12:42 pm:        from the inside to the outside bolt with threads towards the pegs and the heads towards each other- round washer - Kick stand bracket - L bracket (with flat side towards the kickstand bracket) - round spacer (1inch?) - muffler strap - round washer - lock nut on the peg side
