Can we get a sound clip? Looks good.
I’ll post one later when I get back home. It sounds fairly loud at idle but with the quiet core baffle, it’s actually pretty quiet and normal riding throttle usage. WFO throttle is loud but not obnoxious. I would imagine without the removable core, it would be excessively loud. I’m very happy with the look, sound, performance and the quality is excellent!

Nice. Looking forward to it. I’m in the market for an exhaust but can’t decide. Not really looking for the performance but more for letting drivers around me to know I’m there and looks. Your set up is looking pretty sweet.

If you look closely in the pic, you will see I have relocated the rear turn signals up high attached to my rack. I’ve traveled across the country with them in that position and they are just as noticeable as the stock signals.
Oh, there it is. I saw that your turn signal wasn't in the stock place, I just couldn't tell that little sliver (from the angle of the shot) was your turn signal a little higher up on the rack.

How cold do you expect to ride in, motorcycle tires in general do not do well in cold temps. they become rather dangerous.
Correct me if i'm wrong but the thresh hold I believe is around 6deg.C or 42F after that you're rolling the dice on tire safety.
I rode to work today at 18f. no issues, I'm commuting, its not like I'm running MotoGP. 40 min ride, heated jacket and heated grips, @deftoner hand guard extensions. Only my fingers got cold. Guess I need to take the extensions off and put on the mitts now that its actually cold. ;)

2011 S10, Changed the clutch basket today to the later model
It's a pretty significant difference in the engine noise and vibrations, Fairly expensive here in Aus at $650 for the part but I think it's worth it now that it's done
Followed the instructions in this thread, Thanks to all that contributed

Not today but recently. Replaced worn out Galfers with PFMs and OEM hoses with Hel lines.

PFMs are true floating disks and using SBS pads give you a really constant braking not like for example EBC which expand as they heat up meaning you have to release pressure mid way through your braking. I use this set up on all my bikes now.

Looks like a great alternative for the OE’s. Thanks!

Changed my coolant and upgraded my crash protection.

I have decided to start exploring more of the dirt roads around here and, while the Yamaha stuff is fine for street and fire roads, I plan to push a little deeper into the unknown.

Can't seem to attach pictures via Tapatalk for some reason so you'll have to take my word for it.

Interesting choice, likewise I’m thinking of motos or Dunlop mission trailmax. Currently have the mitas.
Trailmax was on my short list. But, after hearing many people state the trail max was closer to a 60/40 dirt and some front sliding in loose stuff I decided to go motoz. The chevron front tread like the mitas I knew I trusted
