ok, i noticed that after i installed my yosh RS3 slip on, the bike seems to have lost a bit of power when i full throttle...i noticed a small leak probably from the rivet..but im not sure if that's it...i mean it's barely noticable at idle...im guessing with the heat the metal will expand and close off any gaps..but i dont know....do i need to get a PCIII?? should i take off the exhaust and put that liquid gasket stuff? maybe there is no difference..i may have just outgrew straight line speeding hehe

A PC could never hurt, especially if you have it dyno-tuned specifically for your bike.

You wanna ride some time?

sure i'd love to ride sometime marc do i have to have the PCIII stay on my bike? or can i just upload the data to the existing ECU?

jason mine did the same thing ...find a local dealer who has a Yosh box...they can remap the ecu for you..power commander is good probably better, but I did the Yosh box deal and it worked...the guy around here charged me $40...

A PCIII may be your best bet, especially when you think about Bert's.

Wanna ride Sunday morning?
