Cool i was thinking of getting one if i get a pipe. I have a few Qs.
Can it go on any pipe?
How do you install it?
Do you think its worth the money so far?
How do you think it looks?

I havent run it yet but ill post after this saturday.
as for looks its great very sweet!!
and install is the same as puting in the stock pipe bolt it to the head and to the silencer.
and it will work with any aftermarket slip on

It will fit on any slip on (I think).
Just take off your stock header, remove the exhaust manifold gaskets. Install new ones and throw that bad boy on. :devil
I will turn brown in time, unless you get it coated.
I would say yes it is worth the $180 I paid for mine.
You might want to get a new pair of grips. You will need it from the power gains! :macho

hey scott, on your profile it says you got 18 disk on your wb e series, is there anyways u can put pics on here, or did it give more power or wat????????

actually i got 6 extra disks and longer screws cuz i wanted 14 disks. it seems to really like it that way. I twas kinda misleading to put 18. It looksthe same to me just a little bit longer not even past the rear grab bar.

And for some reason, i dont know how or why but i took the spark arrestor out and picked up some bottom end. go figure!!

sorry i dont have a way to post pics

I did have to change my jetting around slighty,,bigger pilot jet and adjustment of the fuel screw.. So don't just slap it on there and expect it to run the best,,it might,,but if it doesn't,,then you know you have to make some jetting changes..just an FYI

Pardon me for asking and maybe Im missing something. You said that you added a few disk to your E Series and removed the spark arrestor. What is the point of adding disk if you removed the spark arrestor? :confused:

even without the spark arrestor the disks stil do there job of pulling some of the exh out of the engine. All be it that its not as much. But it runs stronger with the disks in and the arrestor out than with it just wide open. and plus it looks a million times better with disks in it than without

From what I understand from the directions on the E Series pipe is that the disk create more back pressure than anything else.

I found out for myself that with the spark arrestor and disk, my machine ran better. It was noticeably less powerful on the bottom end , but a tad bit more powerful on the top end.

Anyone else wanna comment on this??:confused:

The more disks u have the less the backpressure. The spark arrestor is supposed to make it have more low end and make the sound levels ok for riding in some areas. Mine runs great without it!!!

would a powerbomb fit on any full exhaust systems? does it change the sound of the pipe any?

11-01-2002, 02:00 PM

i dought it, cus all that exhaust still has to go through the muffler so i don't think it would change it much if any at all?? am i wrong??

I cant think of that restaurant to save my life. All I know is that there only a few of em in the country.

I don't know if it will fit on a full exhaust system or not. It doesn't change the sound but it does quiet it down quite a bit. ;)
