So i changed my oil and my bike sounds very different. Admittedly its pretty much stock but the damn oil change DID ME IN. Time to get a drummer i guess,

Drummer? Go for a D&D if you don't like pansy!

+1 for drummer!

Quiet at idle but still sounds mean.

Chugging around 3,000rpm it sounds like a hot rodded harley.

WOT and 6,000rpm sounds like nothing I have ever heard!

How in the wide wide world of sports would an oil change alter the exhaust tone one damn bit?

Drkside79, I agree. When I put 20w-50 in mine, it quieted the idle down by a large margin. My Jardine more than compensates when I give it a little juice

I thought something was wrong i was waiting for the engine to seize or a tire to come off the dramatic difference in sound was unnerving. It also threw off my shifting which i did off sound. I know I'm being melodramatic but this made me very unhappy

Get a force exhaust. They sound sick
Nice and loud, good "crack" and great performance boost.

In fact, I think there's one for sale in the classifieds for pretty cheap..............
