+1. Those valves tend to crack rather easy. If you happen to replace it,
look for the L-shaped valves. They make your live so much easier.

2016-09-03 Thread 'Ross M. Jamison' via Nighthawk Motorcycle Lovers! 
Javier,

Thank you. Once again I doubt I will remove the baffles. The owner 2nd back 
from me, had pulled the baffles & drilled them.

Tell you a story. Back in February March, I was working on my bike and the 
cheapie rear axle lift, bent a tab and dumped my bike over. I tried to lift it 
myself but couldn't leverage it up. I had one (1) of my sons help me stand it 
up. 

My wife said why don't we get me a newer, smaller, lighter bike. That sounded 
good to me. I asked when & she said maybe August September. So I found a 2013 
Kawi KLX 250 with 47 miles on it. I came home & told her & we one of another 
mother of all fights.

Needless to say, I'm going to keep my 1992 750 Nighthawk. My uncle rode one up 
until he was was about 75. I'm only 59 & still act like a teenager, when my 
body allows. I also had a 1972 CB 750 back when. I have a soft spot for this 
bike.  I told my wife I will keep it but that I'm planning on fixing it up. No 
problem. The old girl needs a dent removed from the tank & the tank needs to be 
repainted. I have other repairs to do but the basic bike is solid. Right now it 
will idle but not accelerate. After all the repairs to correct that, I'm 
convinced it is screen mesh filter in the petcock. Gotta drain the tank & fix 
that. I travel a lot for work, so weekends are precious as far as family & 
grandchild time. Also, it's been so hot in Houston, you can't hardly work 
outside. (We move Houston in the summertime. It's about 2 ft from hell). It's 
starting to cool off so I can start working on it.

So that's my story & I'm sticking to it.

Ross, have you looked at the Tim Hodge's mod? Instead of completely
removing the baffles, you can drill a series of holes if increase air flow
which also results in a somewhat different tone. You should be able to find
videos in yourtube.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] No Rejetting required for Exhaust Baffle removal

FYI, baffle-less bikes tend to get REALLY grating on extended or high speed
rides.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] No Rejetting required for Exhaust Baffle removal

2016-09-03 Thread Greg 
I have a stage 2 jet kit along with a KN air filter. It all comes out of a Mac 
4-1 exhaust. The Mac is a very cheap exhaust. It will rust after a couple of 
years. The Vance n Hines is a better investment. The Macs have a removable 
baffle which is held on by only one screw. It's a very primitive design. With 
the baffle removed, the bike does sound good except when running on the highway 
for a while. Then it's just annoying. With the baffle removed I do feel a power 
increase in the bike. To me it's noticable. For track days, or other goofiness 
I would recommend the baffle removal. But not for everyday use. Fuel economy 
will also greatly suffer with that setup.

Re: [Nighthawk Lovers] No Rejetting required for Exhaust Baffle removal

2016-09-03 Thread Javier Garcia 
While I am not voting for removing baffles or even worse a straight pipe, I
don't think the factory setup is for optimal performance. In fact, most
Japanese bikes come pretty lean from factory to meet emissions regulations.
Rejetting and adjusting the carbs will give you better performance even
with the stock exhaust. Allen used to spend a lot of time on this, and I
believe his 750 was the best tuned bike I had ever ridden.

Yeah!  It's pretty much like a Honda Civic, open it up, make it loud.  Jetting 
and opening exhaust does not add HP, you are moving the power band.  You have 
to do internal engine mods to add HP.  

I agree do what you want, but it's a waste of time and screws up a bike that 
was already dialed in by the factory for optimal performance.
