Performance enhancement F800GS ;-)

[Micky]

My F800GS is now two and a half years old, done 48,000 miles and it's great

Fitted an Akrapovic exhaust some time ago, half the weight of the original and a nice sound ... but could do better

So cut the removable baffle in half

Without the baffle it looked errr mmmm naughty but nice
But had a crisp bark to it that was tiresome on a long journey

So now I drilled the shortened baffle

The exhaust sound good but not too naughty and the escaping gasses suck out the other gasses through the small holes and unleashes loads of extra power to reel in the 1200's

1) Baffle cut in half
2) Extra power releasing orifices

Steady Micky..... Get it on the dyno ASAP and have the AFR's checked. You don't want to be melting pistons.

It would probably go even better if you binned the pipes and catalytic convertor and fitted a set of headers but then you'd definitely want to have it remapped.

No bait required Luke .... just a bright shiny hook

Mike ... it was a windup. The ;-) in the headline was the give away
