It is never a good idea to run a motor or our exhaust at higher-than-normal temperatures since it can lead to failures down the road. This leads to increased overall exhaust and motor temperatures and also decreased overall performance. When a motor is running lean, it is not getting the ample amount of fuel that it needs to function at its best. Running lean generally means that your motor is not getting enough fuel to balance out the added airflow and equates to your motor and exhaust system running at higher-than-normal temperatures. When the air/fuel mixture is changed, your motor will have a tendency to run lean. WHAT ARE THE IMPLICATIONS OF THIS AIR/FUEL MIXTURE CHANGE? This changes the air/fuel mixture that is set up for the stock exhaust system. Also, generally the mid pipe and head pipes of most aftermarket systems are larger diameters than stock which allow for added airflow to pass through quicker.

To try to replicate now would be a $70,000 cost ![]() It was a solid three months of just building this unit. Then many items were fabricated in house such as the exhaust sytem / nerf bars / fuel tank holders / rear wheel carrier / tool box / water tank / parts of the dakar tower and many more items. The bike was stripped to a bare chassis and plated and gusseted in many areas. Paul finished 7th Outright on this unit and won stage 11 in the Fiambala dunes.
