So the bike finally got to go visit the dealer now that everything is up and running following the hurricanes. It spent about a week up there, getting the 5th gear recall, solenoid eliminator, flopping mirror, dead battery, and new ECM taken care of, as well as the new Saron exhaust.

Let me just say that my bike is a completely different machine. I thought it was badass before. Now, it is simply insane. No stumbles, no problems riding at any RPM. MPG is through the roof, the only time it dropped below 45mpg instant was during acceleration, cruising ranged from mid 40s to mid 50s depending on gear and RPM.

The Saron pipe, well...it is awesome. I love the sound. It is what this bike is supposed to sound like. Looks cool too.

Add me to the list of people that think the Buell team did this one right.

Oh yeah...it also had the clutch cover replaced and the radiator pod from when it went for a slide a while back. The new clutch cover rules.

Zack3g,
Do you want to part with the stock exhaust?
I'm looking for another one to experiment with to see what kind of sound and performance I can get out of it.
