Ok, I have a buddy at work who has ridden bikes for year, has been and still is sponsored, etc.... So he knows a thing or two about bikes.

We got chatting the other last night as I was leaving work. The subject of silencers came up and I have mentioned that my bike has been running rich etc.... Well he told me to check the packing. If it is really bad it can and does effect performance. I had been looking into this anyway, so now I was really interested to get into the silencer.

From what he told me, the packing should be darkish, but still somewhat white and not saturated or completely black.

Well, I got into my silencer,well let's let the pictures tell the story:

Does it have a spark arrestor? My bike came with the full Pro Circuit exhaust but has no spark arrestor and while I'm at it I would like something quieter also. So after you get some seat time would you mind giving report on the overall sound and performance?
