Since I live in an area of the country where there are few other Triumphs, I have only meet one other TBA rider. I have found this board very informative. I read it about every day.
My 2003 America is the forth Triumph I've owned, but the first Hinckley model. I've had it a year, and it is still stock. No problem in 5,000 miles. Getting over 50 MPG, no blueing of the pipes, and very little poping.
If I get the Tbike pipes, what can I expect to change ?
I would think that a 25% increase in HP, has to come from somewhere. Even with the stock jets in the carbs, a freer flowing exaust should pull more air through the carbs. And the ventura effect should cause more pull on the gas from the jets. What have the owners of the bikes that have the ThunderBike pipes experenced ?
