Has anyone heard from Gearloose on how his 12 is running now that the pipe has been on there for awhile????? | ||
| Easyflier |
Bad, is Gearloose running the Drummer now? I know Gearhead was running it and everything he's posted has been very positive but haven't read any other comments lately from him. | ||
| Leeaw |
What about props for Bedford Hills? How many does this make that you have sold? I assume I will get a tracking# once it goes out? Lee | ||
| Bads1 |
OOOOP's sorry easyflier I ment Gearhead. | ||
| Buckinfubba |
lee sorry about that. Didn't mean to dispurge on bedford hills. so here ya go.....BEDFORD HILLS IN THE HOUSE!!!! today I'll have your tracking number for ya. thanks for your support. I belive were up to pipe number 10 not counting mine. me and kevin are pretty happy campers, because it is working well and most of all people are happy. we won't ever get rich doing this. but we are having fun. bad mines been on now for about a month in ahalf, its had a hard day at the track and just normal tom foolery and I am still in love with it. | ||
| Bads1 |
I'm wondering how its doing on a 12.I thought Gearhead was the only one so far running it on a 12?? | ||
| Buckinfubba |
oh probably ok ....or we woulda heard bad news. either that or he can't get off his bike longenuff to type. | ||
| Oconnor |
has anyone put a sound bite up? Is it louder than the race kit? I know sound doesn't matter to a lot of people but its performance. I just want to give my dreams at night a sound to go with the visuals of a new exhaust. saving my pennies y'know. | ||
| Buckinfubba |
charels no sound bites but, it is a hair louder some have said but it is a lower tone rumble compared to the race kit. not as tinny sounding. | ||

Quick question: suppose I just put the Drummer on my XB9 without making any other adjustments to the FI, ECM, or air filter, etc. How then would the bike run? Thanks, Prof | ||
| Bads1 |
Prof stack it would most likely not run as well as it does stock.Might be hesitant at a certain rpm or a flat spot somewhere you shouldn't | ||
| Buckinfubba |
prof It would run like any of the other pipes with out the upgrades. It would be totally crappy but it wouldn't be great. And it would probably be a lil lean and have a big dip in it. kinda like if it was a carb you'd have to re jet if you changed a pipe, But with FI you should do the upgrade and I would say with the drummer to get your moneys worth to do the upgrade | ||
| Buckinfubba |
lee you have mail with a tracking number your drummer is on the way thanks for your support | ||
| Daves |
As far as I know, Gearhead still loves his Drummer! I haven't talked to him in a couple days. Ride to the edge! Dave Iowa HD/Buell (Buell Cycle Center) | ||
| Leeaw |
Prof, I only ordered the Drummer and have to wait a bit on the ECM and air filter, but I will give a personal account after I get it. If it does suck, I will begin with the air filter, ride it and then get the ECM if it still sucks. I just want to it work as well as stock for now, but who am I kidding? I bet I have the ECM and filter soon after. | ||

Greetings from Gearhead (Ralph) The pipe is great on a 12. You'll pull through first gear so hard and fast, you won't believe it! I never hit the rev limiter this much on my M2, what a hoot!! The sound is outstanding!! It has actually become a little louder and deeper but my wifes 883 with baffled drag pipes is still louder, that's OK with me. BUY THIS PIPE!! Gearhead (Ralph) a member of the infamous... IOWA FARM MAFIA  | ||

I'm excited too Bubba, once I get it out of the service dept with the tps reset , I'll hopefully have no reason to ever go back there again! Now that will be a good feeling, new bike, new pipe, and a new sound. | ||
| Buckinfubba |
opto....I think your may go out today Ralph good to see your still inlove. I am with mine also. the very infamous IOWA FARM MAFIA....ROCKS!!!!! | ||

No problems with my pipe on the 12, it is alittle louder with my full body fairing, ....few problems with my dealer. great pipe brian and thank you. | ||
| Buckinfubba |
thanks gary...glad it worked out | ||
| Buckinfubba |
opto your pipe will be picked up tommorrow and start its happy route to you. god it takes an act of congress anymore to send something international. I felt like a circus dog jumping thru hoops. anyway I emailed ya your tracking number so you can keep tabs on it. keep us posted when you get it. thanks again from kevin and brian....the happy drummer makers..... damn that sounds like santas elves | ||
| Bads1 |
....Few problems with my dealer.... What problems with your dealer????? | ||
| Leeaw |
Brian, just got back from picking up my XB just now. 48f at night and the Gerbing liner is worth its weight in gold. To boot, I get home and the pipe is sitting there waiting for me! I hope to get it on this Saturday as it is supposed to be 72 and sunny in NY. Nice job on the welds! Wish I had a garage to work in as I could be changing it right now.  | ||

I forgot to ask but you mentioned using a swivel ratchet to not have to remove the belt and pulley. Are you talking about one of the simple swivels you can buy at Sears? I don't want to be stuck without the right tool. | ||
| Easyflier |
Leeaw, I did it by unbolting the rear muffler bracket from the cases. I didn't have an Allen wrench to loosen the pinch bolt at the time. Having said that, I think it's simpler to loosen the rear axle and remove the idler pulley. | ||

Brian, I'll keep track of the duties/GST/customs/courier costs for any other Ozzies that might be interested in the Drummer. At this stage it looks like you could do a roaring trade in ecm's and filters at the very least...you could charge a fee for jumping through all those hoops and we'd still be better off! HD is a monopoly over here. The Drummer with ecm & filter should end up being about the same price as the factory kit, but to buy the 3 components here individually it costs about $1900 AUD vs $1440 AUD for the race kit. Looking forward to a good ride on Sunday, the first day off I'll get since picking up the bike a week and a half ago. Yeeeeehaaaaaa!!! | ||

That's Gearhead runnin the Drummer,I have a D&D and pondering a Force for a nice winter project in my heated garage.Waiting to see if they have the breakage problem addressed before buying.Was up to Daves and picked up my stock 12 muff and Dave fired a 9 up that has got the map redone on a 9R.As Dave said,it will give ya a woodie!
