VTX 1300 S - Exhaust Modification - Version 2 - long video

[MrBmw300]

I want to do this to my bike and i was wondering if you ever had to rejet your carb after you drilled the holes? And does your bike do any back firing?

Does it matter which hole you choose to drill through for the 7th opening?

sorry I have not replied sooner....I dont think it matters...but was easier on the bottom hole easir access with the drill bit

[gst69man]

are the 1300's carb'ed only. IE, dont you need a carb jet change to protect engine from running hotter with the mod to the exhaust?

Yes, all the 1300's have carbs...I have not rejetted mine, but I plan on doing so when I get a new airbox...so far it is not been a problem, but I need to pull the plugs and check them out...

How did you get the original black metal plate on the end to come off?

[ninja1168]

I didn't...I drilled the 7th inner hole through one of the first original 6 that were drilled in the end plate...had to get an extra long drill bit and ended up snapping one in the process.
