I need to some tech help. I want to purchase a tyga exhaust & would like to know if the bike will remain learner legal?
And if it is just a case of swapping the stock exhaust over to the tyga?
And if anyone else has had one fitted if it makes the bike faster?

You seem to be suffering from a huge misunderstanding here, and that is that you can keep a bike learner legal and make it faster. This is not the case.
If you want to make a restricted bike faster, then you will be making it non learner legal by definition. Learners who are 17 and on a CBT are restricted to 14.6bhp. In order to make a bike go faster you need more power, which means braking this limit.
I suspect that without the powervalve motor fitted, a tyga exhaust will do diddly squat anyway, but you might potentially add one or two bhp which would be braking the law. Also, the bike will probably be stupidly loud after the modification which would draw the attention of the police. Since aftermarket exhausts are usually fitted to make a bike more powerful, they are going to ask some very awkward questions.
If you want to go the whole hog, then fit the powervalve motor and the tyga exhaust, but you definately won't be legal. And you may need to rejet the carb or you could run very lean and seize the bike.
In short, if you want to keep it legal, don't bother. ____________________ British beauty: Triumph Street Triple R; Loony stroker: KR1S; Track fun: GSXR750 L1; Commuter Missile: GSX-S1000F; Cheap project: CBR900RR FireBlade
Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another. |
