RS-3 for the 2014

[holy666diver_imp]

Got the RS-3 Slip-On this weekend from mjezek. He met me down in Anaheim at the Honda Center.

It's the 2013 Street Series slip on with the removable baffle. I had to call Yoshimura and order the center-stand bracket for the 2014 to make it work, but it's totally worth it! The Slip on they sell for the 2014 is the Signature Series and you can't remove the baffle... lame. So I lucked out on getting a like new 2013.

The hardest part of the install was the center-stand bracket which is in a very very tight area.. No idea how anyone can check the torque on a space that tight so I just did a turn past snug. Took me over 30 minutes to get the stupid spacers in.

Slip-on went right on! Took less than 10 minutes.

All I can say is wow! it sounds much much better and this took off a ton of weight! I can actually hear the bike now when I ride and even though the slip on is longer than stock it is very thin and overall smaller than the stock's overall monster size and weight. Now this is the oval style and I think it gives the bike a much sportier look. Which this is a sport bike so I really dig how the shinny stainless steel looks. If you're looking for a more vintage cafe style can the Arrow or Staintune may be the ticket but I wasn't about to fork out that much money.

Time will tell if the MPG will change but over all if you are thinking of getting one, just do it haha.
