If you remove disks it is quieter and closer to stock jetting. Add disks and it breaths better but it gets louder.

I run several on my bikes, very dependable and light. Remove disks to get closer to stock jetting and to make it quieter.

I visited Moonshine on my 10300 mile KLR ride and they were closed even though both the website and the sign on the door said that they were open at that time. > > > Sent from Outlook Mobile > > > > > > > On Sat, Apr 2, 2016 at 8:41 AM -0700, "gtwalters@...

Not necessarily a fair weather rider.  Have ridden in below freezing weather but last night it was 29 degrees and it snowed about 3 inches.  My forecast is for low 20's on Friday morning with rain snow mix.  Probably will not risk that mess.

Still going to go, even if I have to drive.  Have ridden my KLR more than 1000 miles in a day more than once.  Rode from home, in Summit County, Ohio to Moab, Utah.  It was 42 degrees the morning I left, so I'm no pussy.  I'm not stupid either.

Like they say in Ballard "ya sure ya betcha".   Poke "DARPA nanodrones" into your favorite search engine and sit down for a long gone link fest. Years ago I  worked on a project that shoveled  grasshopper sized nano drones out of the doors of  transport aircraft.  The drones fluttered to the ground then  formed a wireless mesh network that detected and reported "enemy" troop movements. DARPA has grasshopper sized autonomous flying drones in testing now.

In the movie, there is a camera that is controlled by a cell phone and is about the size of a small bird, there is another camera that is about the size of a beetle. The cameras could fly around and hover. I am not too savvy on spy tech stuff, does that technology really exist? Man, and I thought we had farkle! Any one of you seen the movie, does that technology really exist? I thank you in advance. Eddie (Codename) Agent 00-650
