Installed Baron Big Air/Vance&Hines/Coaster/FI2000

[jay02904]

So I spent about 7 hours yesterday (wew longer than I thought it would take) installing the Barons big air kit, and "capping" the reed valves (if my anatomy of the 1600 is correct?!) Couple snags along the way the cross air tube...that thing wanted to be permanently attached to the bike but I used a dremel and some sheet metal hand cutters to get it out that took about 45min to and hour. then the reed valves...tough little sucker bolts to get at one of the gaskets did come apart, in a very small line almost splitting it but formed together pretty decent when I put it on the cover plate. the "medusa"(you can tell I was on here during the install till midnight! :) thanks guys...as mac called it was ok but I got hung up on the smallest tubing (? air return?) it was tough to get off and get a cap on there. put it all together looks awesome IMO, but not 100% sure if the sound is right or if I screwed something up. I am going to try to get a video link on here but it basically sounds like a lot of air movement when I get on the throttle, this normal? and it sounds "throaty". I set the FI2000 to just under 3 , just under 5, and 0 for pots 1, 2, and 3 respectively. took her out for a midnight run and definitely feels like more power. Here are a couple during and after pics....specs: 2008 1600 with 8,100 miles have had vance and hines on since about week 1. like i said the sound is throwing me off a bit but could be the norm for this kinda job? thanks
