| Improving
High
Performance
Motorcycles
(part
2) |
| By
Scott
Davison (Click

There
are
many
ways
to
improve
your
motorcycle,
all
of
them
worthy.
One
of
the
first
items
many
motorcyclists
choose
to
upgrade
is
the
exhaust
system.
Aftermarket
exhausts
have
several
benefits
over
the
stock
units-
much
lighter
weight,
more
power,
better
looks
and
they
sound
great!
Let’s
look
at
these
benefits
individually.
(continued
from
last
month)
More
Power
When
we
remove
sound
baffling,
smooth
curves
and
enlarge
exhaust
system
diameters
we
decrease
restriction.
Think
of
force
a
large
object
through
a
small
hole-
the
hole
provides
resistance.
Enlarge
the
hole
however,
and
the
resistance
falls.
This
is
the
basic
reason
an
engine
will
make
more
horsepower-
usually
4
to
10
more
on
the
top
and
sometimes
as
much
as
15
in
the
mid-range.
This
is
the
kind
of
power
increase
that
will
rocket
you
out
of
corners,
save
you
gas
mileage
and
make
a
loaded
down
motorcycle
tackle
the
canyons
with
aplomb.
Better
Looks
Looks
are
in
the
eye
of
the
beholder,
and
there
are
a
few
common
materials
and
finishes
used
in
aftermarket
exhausts.
Aluminum,
Carbon
Fiber
and
Titanium
each
have
their
fans,
and
they
are
all
gorgeous.
The
materials
are
also
crafted
into
forms
more
pleasing
than
stock.
Attention
to
detail,
finish
and
shape
all
contribute
to
great
looking
parts
on
a
vehicle
where
it
counts
most!
Sound
The
sound
of
aftermarket
exhausts
is
usually
louder
and
sometimes
controllable
through
removable
baffling-
you
control
the
sound
level.
A
Ducati
at
full
throttle
is
something
of
an
art
form
however,
and
should
not
be
muffled!
You
can
really
hear
the
motor
making
power,
BMW
or
Ducati
and
it
sure
is
enjoyable.
Upgrading
your
exhaust
is
quick
and
easy.
The
benefits
are
in
plain
view
to
be
seen,
heard
and
felt.
In
almost
all
cases
they
will
not
void
any
manufacturer’s
warrantee,
usually
the
exhausts
have
one
of
their
own.
And,
most
importantly,
they
are
fun-
maybe
it’s
time
to
make
your
riding
even
better
than
it
is!

STAFF
STORIES |

Cycle
Therapy...
Fall
is
my
favorite
time
of
year
for
many
reasons.
You
can
ride
with
all
of
your
safety
gear
at
a
comfortable
temperature
and
the
changing
colors
of
the
leaves
add
another
dimension
to
the
spectacular
mountains
we
ride
in.
But
one
of
the
most
exciting
parts
about
fall
is
the
new
motorcycles!
Fall
marks
the
time
when
the
next
year’s
models
start
coming
available
and
we
all
get
to
see
them
for
the
first
time.
This
year
is
no
exception,
there
are
some
great
new
additions
to
the
Ducati
line
(S2R
1000)
and
a
new
BMW
on
the
showroom
floor,
with
more
to
come
this
spring.
Over
the
years
I
have
had
the
opportunity
to
witness
the
full
range
of
new
models
from
many
manufacturers
and
have
become
a
little
jaded.
Being
in
the
motorcycle
industry
for
more
than
ten
years,
bold
new
models
tend
to
be
less
bold
and
new
in
a
way
similar
to
the
decreasing
glamour
of
birthdays
as
we
get
more
of
them.
But
something
grabbed
me
this
year,
a
new
model
that
really
got
me
excited.
I
mean
it
REALLY
has
my
blood
flowing.
The
new
BMW
HP2
Enduro!
I
have
appreciated
the
BMW
dual
sport
bikes
for
several
years
and
this
bike
is
amazing.
It
is
such
a
radical
departure
from
a
traditional
BMW
dual
sport,
and
shifts
the
purpose
towards
the
dirt.
When
we
got
our
HP2
in,
it
begged
me
to
ride
it.
Who
am
I
to
not
answer
the
call
of
a
new
motorcycle;
especially
a
rare,
exotic
dirt
bike
like
this.
When
I
returned
from
a
very
brief
ride
the
adrenaline
shake
was
in
my
hands,
just
like
when
I
got
off
my
first
motorcycle
ride.
This
big
bike
responded
like
a
true,
lightweight
dirt
bike
and
was
so
fast.
Fast
on
the
pavement
and
very
fast
on
the
dirt.
WOW!
Rarely
is
something
more
exciting
than
one
imagines
it,
especially
after
months
of
glorified
thoughts.
This
bike
blew
me
away!
The
excitement
generated
by
motorcycles
is
a
consistent
attraction,
but
every
once
and
a
while
one
will
grab
your
attention.
REALLY
grab
you.
I
am
convinced
there
is
a
bike
for
everyone,
a
motorcycle
that
can
stir
your
soul
and
challenge
your
perceptions
of
what
a
motorcycle
can
be.
Those
who
have
had
that
experience
know
exactly
what
I
am
talking
about.
If
you
haven’t
had
your
soul
stirred
in
a
while,
come
over
to
the
shop
and
let
us
help
you
with
a
little
‘cycle
therapy’.
