After market exhausts

[Zammy]

Recently purchased a Bonnie T120 and was looking at replacing the exhausts with the ones from Gassercustoms in CA. The exhausts are made for the T120. My question is would my bike need a tune up to work right with new exhausts?

If I where you, I'd wait awhile and see what other pipes come out. They sounded kind of raspy to me.

Check www.TriumphTwinPower.com for more info on map upgrades and when they are needed.

I've been told by the local Triumph rep, the local dealer and an aftermarket manufacturer that the new T120 and Thruxton ECU will compensate for some mods; the installation of the V&H silencers.
the ecu can alter the mixture by 16%.

Thanks for the feedback appreciate it.

You might also want to consider British Customs Sleeper Exhaust......you can check them out on Youtube....they sound great....

FYI - I have a pair of BC Ceramic Black Sleeper Exhausts for sale for earlier Bonneville models... at a good price! http://triumphbonneville.org/for-sal...ceramic-black/ And yes, they do sound great!

I'd be careful about any mods while still in the warranty period.

This is an interesting and valid question. What dyno results have shown by one of our manufacturers is that the ECU did in fact increase fueling for both a cat delete and slipons. I would also recommend checking out Cone Engineering. They make really nice slipons at a fraction of the other companies and actually make pipes for some other big name companies ....

I got the V&H/Triumph peashooters at purchase, removed the soldered tab, then extracted the 3 inch db killers.
Tone is very good and really growls after about 3500 rpm

Check out the Remus Slip-ons, best sounding pipes I have heard and put them on my own T120. No maps needed unless you are eliminating the cat.

So cool you're purchasing Gasser's exhaust. He's building my new bike at the moment. Those exhaust are amazing, and damn loud. Great purchase.
