    I think when nobody is around late at night HRK sends PMs to himself. :roflmao:

    JB, if you click on the person's screen name above their avatar you should see the option to send a private message. Only those who have opted to not receive messages will have that option hidden.

    Today I am going to take the scooter out for a longer ride so I can get a better feel and opinion of what I think of the V-Ductor. As of now it is 47* out and usually my ride is sick crazy when it is this temp out. I will post later in this thread to give my real opinion of this part......:rolleyes:

    so i took the scooter out with the V-Ductor installed. I have to say that I notice no difference with it installed as it was at normal cruising speed. Where I noticed a difference is when i am in the cams that it is more responsive and seems to pull harder. I did not change the timing curve, but I will soon just for hoots and hollers. How the bike pulls when I am in the cams with the V-Ductor it feels like I did change my timing curves, but of course I didn't...Now it is time for the baffles.:D

    I ended up taking the V-Ductor out...I did not like the decrease in gas mileage that I was getting. I am contemplating on modifying it.......My scooter started to cough and hiccup all over the place with it in, once I took it off then that went away....

    I wonder if the additional flow is counteracting that velocity intake you already have. Shoot me an email and we can arrange for a return/refund since this didn't work with your particular setup.

    Not sure.....However I did speak to another member of this forum that is really good with stuff like this and he considers my intake system more of stage three set up....

    I am not going to worry about the return as there is something that I want to try with it....after I am done with my experiment it won't be returnable.....Thanks for the offer though......

    So, is your bike a stock bike (excluding pipes) with a stage 3 air intake set up. ???

    My bike is nowhere near stock......Changed pipes, air intake, cams, heads, compression, jetting, bored the jugs, ignition.......etc

    OK, so many posts couldn't remember. Sounds like you've done so much to it that any more may be over kill and you may just need to just settle in and ride it the way it is. I've seen other guys keep trying to go the next step and then again to where it starts to turn around and go the other direction. Something to think about anyway.:)

    I agree.....The only thing really for me left to do is to stroke it for more displacement......but I am not going to do that......I am going to modify the V-Ductor as I have a theory that I want to try.......

    With all the mods that you have done, your going to gain power and fuel mileage will go the other way so don't think of the V=ductor as a all can be for better fuel mileage.
