As the topic says, I currently have the Yoshi RS-3 full SS system on my bike
with a Factory jet kit + K&N, here in Houston on my 97'. I purchased the bike this way, and I heard that the 5K RPM "flat spot" was eliminated or reduced with this setup, however I still notice the dropoff. This is prompting me to look for another setup...
I have no idea what HP the bike is supposed to be producing with this setup. I've been looking at the Akra full, but I was wondering if it wouldn't be anything more than an asthetic upgrade?
Oh, one more thing - how much HP should the bike be producing with the Yosh full + Factory Kit + K&N? How much with the Akra fulll + Factory Kit + K&N?

I don't think the problem is your exhaust. I'd put money on your jet kit not being setup right. I'm not a carb guy so I can't help much on this.
Between full system exhausts you shouldn't see more than a few HP differance. I'd guess your bike as is should make 130-140HP depending on elevation/temp etc....

I would agree. I have a 97, jet kit, K & N and Scorpion slip-ons. No problems. Find a good dyno shop with someone that knows how to setup a jet kit, I'm betting that will fix your problem and you will know what kind of HP your bike is producing.

Only 139 :twisted: ?? My FJR showed 135 last year. :D
This year I might put my XX to the test...I'll let you know then.
Mine has a Full Akrapovic system. Bought it that way, so don't know about a 5k rpm prob
