gixxer1300r - about that sidekick test.....

[OB_bimmerbusa]

you mentioned that the bike lost 1hp with the sidekick...after removing the yosh...

were yosh slip ons replaced with sidekick slip ons? or.......
were the sidekick slip ons added to the yosh header pipe?

thanks... just trying to get to the bottom of the 11hp slip on claims....

The Sidekick was added to Yosh headers.

Bimmer:

"Sidekick" claims 11 hp on stock exhaust ... replacement of the stock cans with "Sidekick"...

however, yosh exhaust with yosh can ...
replaced yosh can with sidekick = 1 hp loss

what does this say about the anticipated hp???

It would be nice to see "Sidekick" dynoed with stock exhaust, here in states for verification of original claim ... but, it is now fact that "Sidekick" is not as good as yosh ...

Perhaps the "Sidekick" is superior if and when pc2 is calibrated for difference, I don't know if this was done on the "Yosh" experiment or not.

Maybe GIXXER1300R or someone else knows???

dyno with no cans will net 1 or 2
