Yeah nice gains! notes says "full akra shorty." Is that with the akra headers I assume?Just got my bike back from tuning. View attachment 48830
Mods are Full Akra, BMC filter, and block off plates.
Rode it about 30 miles home and I am VERY happy with is so far.
Since Akrapovič offers no mid-pipe for the NSC, pretty sure full means from the headers back.Is that with the akra headers I assume?
Well that's a good question, I installed the air filter, headers and can myself. That cost about $1500. The shop installed block off plates, removed the evap and dyno/tune for about $900. When you look at the cost it is a lot of money, even typing it now seem pretty crazy. I have put 1500 miles on it since and I can say it is now a animal. The mid range on the street is just wicked. I love the tune but the full system is pretty loud. I would suggest to most people to just get it tuned stock or with a slip-on. From my understanding they could tune out the dip in the low end np, and the power commander, if it ever comes out for the CB can not.I like how they got rid of the null at 5 to 6 grand. If you don't mind me asking what did it all cost?
Well its been over 6 months with all the of work done and in May I rode from AZ to WA and back. I still love the CB but am on the fence if I would get it all over again. For me the mods totally change the riding experience. Most of the time I am riding below 8k and that's where the torque deficient is. On the other hand I really don't full throttle on the street, 30 to 50% I would guess, so it is all in my head and not worth? I guess everyone will have to made that decision for themselves.love it, glad to have found a tuning location, still want that abortion of a cat off, so a bypass and new can will be, cant wait to get the bike. thanks for the post.
you can only know when you get your bike.For a guy thats not looking for the most powerful bike, but looks and rideability, what are your thoughts? Do you think the tune and exhaust is a must? Or is stock a good option. I really love the looks of the black edition, yeah no cruise control, but is going to be a city ride for the most part. I love uamaha, but the mt is pretty inferior when it comes to looks. For a weekend warrior who wants an occasionally wheelie and head turning looks im pretty stuck on the cb. What say you.
My other bike is a SC77 SP with a UK spec ECU flash. In Mode 3 rain mode (P5, T8) I can roll on the throttle and get wheel lift in 2nd gear. My stock NSC has plenty of power for the street.For a guy thats not looking for the most powerful bike, but looks and rideability, what are your thoughts? Do you think the tune and exhaust is a must?
