    My first Z

    Former naked Bueller now on Z...

    Exhaust cut and welded. Took some time to get the angle that I wanted for the slipon. High temp painted midpipe (holds up pretty well from previous bikes). Will remove header and paint it black also.



    Has my son's approval

    Thanks guys. I like it so far. First chance to ride it yesterday. I like the stability in the corners but I need to fiddle with the suspension settings. In some bumpy turns it feels like I am ridding a pogo stick!

    pghz1k, We have similar mods and I choose the full Muzzy map also. Did you make any other changes to the map?

    The only change I made was to add 5's in the 3-9k rpm range at zero throttle to eliminate decel popping. Other than that, I really like the Muzzy map.
