Yup, I've done those mods too. Send pics when you're all done!

I did do the washer mod which helped, but I've been itching to drill the baffles out and get some more sound. Before any of this though, progressive fork springs and a SS brakeline are going in to hopefully eliminate the horrible nosediving when braking. Thanks for the help!

I have 55,000 on mine and runs just like when I bought it.

I am scared to start messing with the carbs- I know I have the mechanical skill to do it but the bike runs so well as is I am afraid to mess with it.

Whether you replace the exhaust or just remove the baffles from your stock pipes, you should rejet.

I wanted to make my 750 a little louder, but don't want to burn up my valves because of improper jetting.

Your fuel economy will suffer though. I get around 42 in the city. Highway? 36 to 40 depending on how you ride. Of course the higher the rpm, the worse the mpg. I would start with the hodge mod and see how you like it. This way you can keep everything stock. Even with the stage 1 jet kit, you can keep the stock pipes.
