    Tuning

    Yes, the Arrow set has a mid pipe with a chamber that replaced the cat. I haven’t felt any need for a Power Commander. No popping on decel. No surging. No flat spots. I’m still very happy with my setup.

    Tire plug kit or better new tire ?

    I’ve been riding on a plugged stock tire for miles. The dealer (good guy) actually recommended it over selling me a new tire.

    Changing the front sprocket

    ^^^^this^^^^^ I also had to use one of those pulley pullers to get the gear off the shaft. You’ll want a good torque wrench when reinstalling that nut.

    701 Gearing Change

    I’d say go with a 15t front to start. It’s a cheap and easy change. Then adjust the rear sprocket as you feel is necessary. I ended up with a 15t front and kept the OEM 40t on the rear.

    Which de-cat?

    I believe the bulge is a tuning feature to regulate back pressure and sound pulses. I have the Arrow because they put some thought and r&d into their design vs a straight through pipe.

    Details on the 701 Recall

    Yeah, I received my recall letter in the mail too. Since I have installed a tail tidy, I filed the letter away for safe keeping.

    Max RPM?

    I guess I’m the odd duck here because I typically follow the owner’s manual for the break-in procedure. And I also use full throttle once the break-in period is done. I’ll add that I performed my own first service this week. The bike used no oil and there was no significant goo/metal on the...

    Max RPM?

    No. It’s what the owner’s manual says about break-in max rpm. 6000rpm for the first 620 miles, and 7800rpm after 620 miles.

    Max RPM?

    No. The manual says 6k for the break-in period. Then 7800 for afterwards.

    Max RPM?

    Does anyone have an idea why the owner’s manual would say to limit revs to 7800?

    Max RPM?

    Under the break-in info in the manual, it says to limit the rpm to 7800 after the initial 620 mile service. But in magazine road tests, it lists max hp as 75 at 8500 rpm. And in the rpm warning light settings, it shows 8000 for rpm1 and 9000 for rpm2. Can someone tell me what the “official”...
