I removed the end baffle from the exahust on my 1984 700s and raised--
the carb needles with a No. 006 (1/16") oring. The result is a really
cool tone and a completly different power curve. The richer mixture
allowed me to put my K&N filter back in (with the Dennis Hammeral
velocity cone).
With the end baffle removed the end of the exhaust looks unfinished,
so I am having a local machine shop make me an alluminum insert ring
where the four rivets are to give the exhaust a finished / custom
look. I will post a picture when I get them on the bike. The
machinist indicated it would be less expensive if he was able to make
more than just one pair.
If you have a 700s, and want a little more sound out of your exhaust
then drill out the rivets in the end of your exhaust squirt some
blaster on the seam and pull on the center with a pair of pliers. If
you like the sound and new power curve, but want a finished look to
the exhaust let me know. If you dont like the sound and performance
changes then pop rivet the baffle back on.
