Couple of questions, first off my bike has 9500 miles on it, and believe it or not it STILL has the stock tires on it. The steel belts are starting to show so Im obviously shopping for new tires. Im only in a budget for about $240-$250 and Im looking at some Michelin Pilot Power tires. Any luck with these if you've had them? They seem like a pretty good quality and priced tire. (Front and rear)
Also, I already have a Yoshi slip on pipe on this bike, but its not as loud as I want it, would I benefit (sound wise) by installing an aftermarket head pipe? If so, will I than need to put a power commander on the bike? Im not really looking to spend the money on one of those, dont need it that bad. I got talked into the slip on, which I like, but Im not sure if it really helped me performance wise...and like I said, I would like it to be a little louder.
