I really go back and forth with this question. There are days when I prefer the smooth refinement and maneuverability of the speed twin… a gentleman’s bike that one. And then there are days when I just like to rough it up with that RNineT boxer motor which makes me feel more like a cowboy… Both scratch a different itch… my wife is scratching her head with my answer😅 Thanks for watching

Thanks for the kind words 👍

I know what you mean…It’s too bad that Unitgarage has no local stores (in East TN) that allows the consumer to physically compare their products side-by-side… These are well made bags of high quality and match the retro styling of the speed twin… The bags I bought were just the right size for my work stuff and some tools. It is unusual that I carry the two bags at the same time but I bought two just in case I need to load more items for longer trips such as the occasional overnighters. Thanks for watching

Thank you ✌️

You are certainly entitled to your own opinions. Thanks for sharing them. I appreciate irony.

That is pure bullshit. If they close roads even for stock bikes (yes they do in Germany or Austria), then it is not about loud exhaust. It is power trip from state. We call it salami method - small slice by slice and in the end there is nothing left. It starts with mountain roads, continues with city parts and ends who knows where.

wow, ruin your freedom... all the way from America. lol.

Hi David! Thanks for watching. As far as the ride goes, honestly, I don’t really notice a difference from stock. I also don’t weigh very much (maybe 180-190 with gear). I’m no expert though. I just thought that the ohlins definitely made the bike look more top-shelf. Ride safe! Cheers.

@@8Jericho8 huh. From what i've seen on other videos, these should give a noticable improvement. Here i was thinking 'at least this guy is spending $$ on performance and not bling!" Nice video anywho, but i'd rather listen to ratchet clicks than tik-tok music. 👍

That’s a great question! I’m planning on making a video comparing the two. Short answer is I like both equally. I didn’t think that I would miss the R9T when I traded it to get the ST… I was wrong. I’ll say more on an upcoming video. Thanks for watching.

Thanks! The bags are absolutely interchangeable. But you have to get the correct subframe(bracket) for the R9T from unitgarage👍

Thanks for the comment. I’ll try to browse through more of UA-cam’s free music gallery for other soundtracks. ✌️

I think he means you should voice over and not have any music. Why put words on the video when you could just dub your thoughts and opinions or record WITH audio.

Thanks

Thanks. I borrowed this idea for another person.

Thanks for watching! How do you like your new speed twin?

@@8Jericho8 it's a pleasure at any kilomètre ( mile)😉

Thanks for watching! Safe riding ✌️

Absolutely 👍

thanks 🙏

@@8Jericho8 Thank you!

Thanks for the info Steve. I thought they were dialing it in for me based on my weight. I’ll be watching those videos you referenced ✌️

Thanks you for the kind words

Hi dave xs! I don’t trust myself with an x-pipe install. Hats off to you and I hope that it turns out well, all the best 👍

@@8Jericho8 Thanks Jericho. I did indeed fit the X-Pipe. I kept the OEM mufflers and the sound is a perfect, not to loud to be offensive, but certainly louder. It now has a nice deep, pleasurable and noticeable note. Rubber side down...👍

Wow lucky you

@@simonfielding8115 ???

...the point is to measure the delta

Hi Don, Sorry for the late reply… The Nelson Rigg works just fine. It all depends on what look I am going for that particular day… it sure is nice to have options 👍

good to know, thanks

Thanks!

I don’t quite trust myself doing a de-cat on this new bike… i’ll have to ask my dealer if they’ll do it for me within reason $-wise. Thanks for watching, cheers

@@8Jericho8 Pretty sure the dealer can't remove your catalytic converter? It's not a hard job really. No special tools required except a T-55 Torx bit. Just need to support the bike without the kickstand, in order to remove the left side frame rail. Took me a couple hours, but I dilly dally alot. Oh, you'll need to purchase new intermediate pipes because the catylic converter is welded to them on the new Speed Twin. So unless your willing to cut up your factory exhaust (which I don't recommend) you'll have that small added expense. I found some chrome intermediate pipes on E-bay for $99 delivered. I bought a British Customs competition X-pipe with the bike from the dealer. So approx. $300 for parts and if you install them yourself it's reasonable. It's the best mod you can do on the bike, period.

@@andrewbecker3700 Yes, a dealer absolutely will remove a cat. Secondly when you remove a cat or go with a full exhaust now you have to tune /flash the bikes ECU. Just removing the baffles tor only doing slip on cans, that is not required.

@@RetroRickey I don't know where you heard removing the cat on a second gen Speed Twin requires an ECU flash? But it's not true. Will a custom tune allow more power, yes. Is it necessary, no.

If your willing to throw out your 2 year factory warranty, and have a dealer bend you over for mods that in many cases accomplish zero horsepower gains, go for it.

those came stock from the factory

Thanks for the kind words. I really haven’t really noticed any performance improvements to be honest.

There is no performance benefit of removing baffles. If anything the bike will run a little leaner, and therefore a little hotter. An ecu tune with just baffles removed will only add 3-4 horsepower at best so its really not worth getting the tune. This is strictly a sound mod.

Thanks for the kind words and thank you for watching
