That will be me Saturday afternoon after I get my Dynojet kit and K&N air filter put in. Watch out!

*And more stickers to put on my fairing – yay!

Eh? did you replace your full exhaust? or is the dyno just for the k&n?

You need to post pics of your bike with all them stickers.

Nope, didn’t replace my full exhaust. The Dyno kit and air filter are supposed to go hand in hand. There was some debate as to whether I would need to rejet just with the new can, but my bike has run great since it went on. I don’t NEED this, I just WANT this. Ha ha ha!

hahaha! can’t argue with a reason like that…

After an afternoon of fun and hijinks (where the eff do all these vacuum hoses go?) we got the rejet kit into the carb and the air filter installed. The difference in power is subtle at in-town speeds, but I gotta hang on a little tighter when I accelerate. For anyone out there who is thinking of doing this upgrade on their GS500 and has aftermarket exhaust on it, I used the 128 jets and followed Dynojet’s instructions to the letter. Idle was unaffected, as was cold starting. I think I will have a lot of fun on my road trip tomorrow!
