Yoshi R77 question

[GAmedic]

For those of us running R77 slip ons, is everyone pulling off the factory compression gasket where the slip on meets the header right after the cat? Trying to figure out if it's on all the way.

That's what I was thinking but wasnt sure. I can see on the mufflers where the sun didnt touch what was under the strap from the previous owner. I'll work on that tonight while I'm waxing it here at work.

Mine arrived without such a thing, so yes, running without

The idea has crossed my mind but the bike is fast enough for me as it sits.

These are the OE "donut gaskets" that I'm referring to.

I am getting a new header and having Frank work his sorcery on my ECU. Beyond that, its fantastic the way it is performance wise. Next project will be full brake system upgrade and then the body work.

Pulled the gaskets out and reinstalled them and everything works great.
