Will it fit on your rig next time you are passing through/close to TN? No way I can get to Orlando. Would be a great bike for the grandkids.
Yes, looking to be in N. Georgia over Memorial weekend. Do some camping and riding. I could bring it with.

If it wasn't on the other side of the world I'd probably already own it.

I had a K&N and Yosh full system on my '01 with no tuning and didn't detect anything wrong, and it pulled noticeably harder than with the stock exhaust from about 5K up.
Do you have a photo of your header? I pulled the header off Cecome's bike (previously it was on another member's super farkled whitebird, CBRbear maybe?) It was supposedly an early model Delkevic and that POS was killing his power.
Just bought the Delkevic not too long ago. As there weren’t many options out there. Got a date in early Dec to get it remapped. See how it does. This was in pieces as I was putting it together.

Yes I have the map in a couple places.

I had it custom mapped when I first got it. But since then have added Delkivic header to the Yoshi slip on’s. That were on the bike when I got it. Changed the FPR to a higher one. Forget the P/N now as Honda discontinued the original. Added the K&N. Runs best right now on my map. Tried a few others from Dynojets web site. Just it’s falling on its face at 150. Want it to climb where it’s supposed to.

All back together now. Take it out after dark and see how it all looks. Also adjusted the low beam a bit lower. See how it looks. Added some cool white LED’s to the dash while it was a part. Really need to do an LED high beam now. Looks awkward with the halogen.
edit: not sure if you can see it. But there is a switch on the under dash plastic. Below the key. This is my bypass to keep the HID off until it’s started. Save from a double cycle. -

having been in this neighborhood last week trying to fit an led bulb, can you enlighten me as to how you accessed the lower 2 bolts of the cluster?
Remove the two under dash plastics. Then a 10mm open/closed either or wrench from the bottom. Was able to work fingers from top and bottom auto unscrew them after getting loose. Reverse for putting back on.

Took the bird to the store yesterday. Came out and bam, no lights up front. Nothing, no running, turn, high beam. Checked fuse. Pulled the under dash covers thinking my HID cutoff switch came apart. Wasn’t it. Rode it home. Pulled windscreen. Started with the volt meter trying to find the problem. Pulled the starter switch from the old bird. Thinking the thumb button went bad. Plugged in and again nothing. What are the odds two switches are bad? Pretty slim. Called my mechanic. He’s an old retired Honda mechanic as well. Usually does my services on the bird. Told him what all I went thru. He says, yea I had that on another bird years ago. Pull the connection block from behind the nose fairing. Check the manual for which wire is the lighting. Put the volt meter on the in and out. Low and behold. 12v going in. 1.5v coming out. Snipped the wires and put a new connection on per his direction. Wham. All the lights are back and working again. I’ll put it all back together tomorrow. It’s Fuking hot out.

Took the bird for a ride to dinner just now. Well it’s bright. Not shinning directly in mirrors. But a few peeps put their hand out to cover it. I bought a 55watt and the old one that came out was a 35watt. Explains the difference in brightness from the old one. Not much more I can do other than going back to the 35watt. I’ll run it for awhile and see how it goes.

Also, do you have the shield thing to block direct exposure to the bulb? I forget who here fabricated some of those to reduce glare to oncoming traffic.No, don’t have the shield. Bulb is square to the head light. Not sure about on coming drivers . Will have to look at that. Most likely it will be they will see me for sure at night.
