So I figured I sort of need "my own space" to fill with such and such garbage. So I'm making a new thread and any questions related to the exhaust install procedure can be kept collectively here.
As I noted in another thread, as of this afternoon, I have two problems with the exhaust thus far.
FIRST...There was lots of popping upon deceleration. I'm assuming it was caused by an excess of air in the mixture, and so spikezx5r (on this site) recommended I get rid of the emissions assembly under the tank, plug the hole to the airbox, and route a tube from one cylinder head into the next. That, he said, should eliminate the most of the popping. I followed his instructions tonight, but I'll fire her up tomorrow and see what's up.
SECOND problem...there's a flat spot between the 2-4k rpm range. I replaced the jets with the Factory Pro 132s (over the stock 130s) and used the Factory Pro Jet Kit needles. I also turned the pilot screws 2.25 turns, which I'm starting to believe is the source of my flat spot. I will rotate the pilots to 2.5 tomorrow and I'll just play it by ear from there.
Now onto a problem not really related to mechanics. The actual canister is at an unfavorable angle. I was wondering if any other Muzzy owners could share whether they have this same "problem." The can sticks way beyond the stock cans, and it even goes beyond my extended frame sliders. Pictures below:
