Posts: 284 mansfield, MA United States | Ok I just traded up on a new 2011 vision. My old vision had S1L2 and Lloydz vmc3. On the new one I want to get a little more hp. With as little poping as I can. I was thinking of going with the 2-1 RPW but I have two concerns. One is that the left side is a dummy and would not have the same weight as the right side. If anyone has them dose this throw the bike off balance? The other is the tuning of the bike with the RPW?s. Every on e I have herd seemed to pop. I love the deep sound but I want to get ride of the poping I had on my old bike. I am planning on having the Cams put in right away with the Lloydz air intake and the VFC III. The dealer told me he dose not have the downloads for the pipes on the 2011?s yet but I can?t imagine it is much different then the 2010?s I see Lloydz offer?s the VMC III and the power commander 5. What is your opinion on the better of the two? And what pipes would you go with on a new 2011.  |

I have had a lot of problems with my 08 (in the shop 18 weeks in 2 years) so I want to do it right and have everything done up front. I was even thinking of droping it off at Lloydz and having him do the upgrades but I have a really good dealer here in Ma that I can go to as well. |

Posts: 284 mansfield, MA United States | Arkainzeye you might have a point there! Every set of RPW pipes I have seen the tips on the right had black buildup but the left still looked new. But they do sound good! |

Posts: 70 Fryeburg ME | You just need to paint the inside of left tip end with stove pipe black paint to give it that carbon look, not for me though I'll stay with the Ness Big Honkers. |

Nothing else has changed... |

Posts: 284 mansfield, MA United States | I talked to my dealer and this is what he recommended. 114 Big bore Llodzs cam's air intake plate, o2 valve, Power commander and S1L2 pipes. The price was a shocker but he thinks it will get me up to around 130hp. He did one a few weeks ago with the 2-1 pipes and got 128hp. He was going to talk to his boss and call me back. This would be done right out of the box.
