Probably no more "power" stuff anytime soon, bike runs fine right now and don't really feel the need for more at the moment. Really need to buy some more gear than bike parts anyways

 

you should get a power commander. The bike is running lean right now, with the full exhaust. Does it backfire alot? I know I love the backfire, but in the long run, you should eventually get the PCV

 

Im running the DB killer, no plans to remove it. Backfiring is no more than stock, even coming off a hard throttle I wont get any. Now without the DB I'm sure it would be different

 

@ChandlerDOOM this might happen to you!

 

well thats good. For me, I need to be loud. Also probably why I think Im going deaf

 

Yeah it looked like you had the DBK removed, but you also have a different bike so . The bike is plenty loud but when you want it to be versus all the time. But different bikes, so my exhaust sounds very different compared to your bike

 

Braaaaap

Eventually I'll make it back that way to ride with ya.

 

Lots of brap, one of these days. We also need to go wheeling

 

That too. I have a hitch carrier so I can bring my bike wherever now as well

 

I need to borrow my buddies carrier to see if it fits with my swing gate, maybe it will if I remove tire, not sure how far out from truck I need the carrier to sit to fit a bike.

Always try a hitch extension. Not sure how that would handle though

Yeah I'm worried it would be putting too much weight that far out from the hitch/frame.

Sweet, which one did you buy. I want one but might just have one made

 

I carry two on my homebrew carrier. Could handle two 500's safely after bombing some two track with this semi light setup below.

I'd make one for ya to clear your swingout but you probably don't want to drive to WY to pick it up

 

I just bought one off Amazon. The brand is arksen but it looks like all the other brands. $80 and free shipping.

Hell that would have been nice to know! Ha

 

Would.

 

Yeah i'm not trusting my bike to $80 of chinese steel

 

I've hauled my ex500 4 times (~2000 miles total) on my $80 Amazon carrier
