    aftermarket performance exhaust basics

    aftermarket performance exhaust basics

    compression was 150/150 last time i checked. i also have the old 650 waterbox and a very poorly tuned carb. possibly the exhaust manifold/chamber from the 650 as well. if fixing those doesnt work ill do a leakdown test, but untill then i wont worry about it, because i dont have a leakdown tester
