Hi Joe,motorcycles and home brewing are two excellent hobbies. [thumbsup]

this is how the bike actually looks like

If your brew is any good, you'll be a popular member of the board. Definitely some beer appreciators on here.
Ah the old 620 - lot like my first ride, with the SIL pipes even.
well i brew a lot of IPAs, DIPAs, RIS, Stouts, and been brewing strong Black IPAs.
those Silmoto, are they good? they sound really nice, ive bunch of CF.
Does the boom tubes are better than my silmoto cans?
I liked the Sils on my 620 - they are on the louder side when you compare from manufacturer to the next. But that loudness is mitigated by the smaller displacement - so the end result is the 'little' monster sounds a size or two bigger.
Better? I guess that depends on you goal. Boomtubes are minimalist and can be 'tuned' for volume level via different amounts of baffles.
One thing to note is that if somethings been done to the intake (more air in) and something like a Powercommander has been added you would need to have the bike tuned if you were to swap to a new exhaust.
One common, inexpensive, mod that the 620 benefits a good bit from is a change in the final gearing. Commonly it's reducing the drive sprocket to 14 teeth from 15. Though the 'ideal' way is to increase the rear driven one by 2-3 teeth. But that will require a longer chain - where as the 14t does't
im really new to bikes, so what is going to do a 14 sprocket?
i like the minimalistic of boom tubes also the sound.
Ah - it's changing the sprockets of the final drive. There's a smaller one (drive) on the output shaft of the engine and then the big one (driven) on the rear wheel. By reducing the size of the front one, or increasing the rear changes the final drive ratio. You loose some (theoretical) top speed, and some actual top off each gear - but the trade is that you get more a more usable power range and quicker pick up.
Never hear boom tubes in person, so I can't comment there. Just remember that it'll probably be $200-300 of additional costs and time to have the bike tuned for the new exhaust. And that is if your bike has something installed that allows for tuning.
oh well thanks a lot, ill search for the sprocket.
thanks a lot
cheers
