advice on fitting replacement exhaust - llamaman - 11-12-2006 Hi mighty Carpe...as normal, looking for some advice (I'll contribute something useful one day, honest ) Have bought some scorpion cans for my 900, can I just fit them and go? or is there some set-up changes needed or advised? Thanks in advance.....yours llamaman advice on fitting replacement exhaust - iand1947 - 11-12-2006 Unless any Carpedian(s) can offer direct help, it may be best to drop a line to Scorpion? (Sadly they don't seem to have a phone-in helpline). Tuning needs may depend on what cans you have. advice on fitting replacement exhaust - llamaman - 11-12-2006 <!--quoteo(post=24185:date=Mon 11th Dec 2006, 11:59 AM:name=Pict)-->QUOTE(Pict @ Mon 11th Dec 2006, 11:59 AM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->Unless any Carpedian(s) can offer direct help, it may be best to drop a line to Scorpion?

If it's an entire set (including the front bends etc.) than the bike will need a tune up. advice on fitting replacement exhaust - iand1947 - 11-12-2006 dK's right - sorry, that's what I meant by it depending on the system: my slip-ons didn't call for re-tuning but some other fitments would have. Wise to check, though you're right about the "warm welcome"! Maybe dandywarhol or others could comment on the needs/benefits of re-tuning c/w the availability of PowerCommander maps for Scorpions if you wanted to go down that route? advice on fitting replacement exhaust - llamaman - 11-12-2006 <!--quoteo(post=24213:date=Mon 11th Dec 2006, 07:06 PM:name=Pict)-->QUOTE(Pict @ Mon 11th Dec 2006, 07:06 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}><!--quotec-->dK's right - sorry, that's what I meant by it depending on the system: my slip-ons didn't call for re-tuning but some other fitments would have.
