My New Bubs

UncleMank · 12-10-2011, 10:36 AM

Well, I finally got aroung to getting the bike washed and putting batteries in the camera. I got my new Bubs installed as well as the Cobra Fi module. When I first started the bike after install, I must admit, it sure put a

on my face. My settings on the Fi are 1-2-2 as most of you here have stated. I do think I am running a bit rich and idle seems a little on the high side, so if ya'll have any suggestions, I am open for them. Besides the bike sounding as awsome as it does, the looks are just a good. What do you think so far.

You have to escuse the mess around my pit, but it's tough keeping up with the yard whea I have to take advantage of what riding weather I have left

disconect the main batt for 30 minuts.when you hook it back up restart the bike but dont touch the throttle for 15 minuts.after 15 minuts of idle shut it of.you can then crank it and do whatever you like.this has helped quite a few people with that fast idle.after warm up your bike should idle 900 to 1000 rpm.

Pipes look great, glad they fit with bags.

Thanks for the tip evil. I will try that first chance I get. I also fogot to mention, my fuel econimy went to hell in a bucket as well. I was getting 45mpg +- 3mpg. Now after adding the Fi I am down about 8mpg less. 36-37 mpg. I have no doubt I am going to burn more gass, but this much? Ofcourse, I am not considering all the goosing of the throtle and cracking it under overpasses and the like. I guess after the excitment of the new TOY goes away, my milage might actually not be that bad. We will see

Clueless, thanks for the praise. I am very happy with the way they fit and look. I wish I could have seen my own face when I fired it up the first time.

Did you go baffle free? That's the only way to go. It actually makes it a lot faster too!

No, I actually left the baffles in. I love the sound and don't think I could handle the baffles out. My wife says it sounds a bit like a motorboat

Go figure, maybe she is burning a little on the rich side

I run baffle-less MFRs with a Cobra Fi2000 set at 1-2-2 and I get 48-50 every tank. My idle seems a little fast too, but not too bad. I'm pretty heavy on the wrist too lol

Looks great, but I'd not think that was a Fury at first, second or third glance.

BTW, what is a Bub?

It's not a Fury Alan it's a Stateline. Please correct me if I'm wrong UncleMank.
Bubs are Bubjug pipes.

Bike looks great BTW
