I just opened up the can on the 450. They had a little tiny tube welded in a larger one to restrict.

So that's gone now :)  it sounds like a modded stock can but its not a bad noise. I hope this thing hauls more ass now.

On another note, I'm sticking a gopro mount to my swing arm. Gopro says wait 12 hrs.

I really don't have that kind of patience.

Those things work better if you follow the directions.

what could go wrong on mounting a GoPro?  [laugh]

Any sound to that thing should help, it sounded like a sewing machine  [cheeky]

You know how I feel about directions.

I c-clamped it for about an hour, rode to the filming location and mounted the camera.  It held.

The mount was a little vibratey.  Not because of the adhesive, but the interface with the clip to the camera was a little loose.

Downloading footage now.

It is louder.  Id guess the larger of those two tubes is probably twice the cross section of the original tiny tube.

Ducati is the pretty girl that can't walk in heels without stumbling. I still love her.
