The IRCs fitted as OEM tyres on the Phantom 200 did not provide much grip in the wet... and have caused quite a many scares/falls for some of the Phantom riders.

 

So the reputation of the IRCs is a bit questionable... :sian:

Even the smallest spark can start a massive forest fire...

 

Quotable Quotes: If you ride a motorcycle often, you will be killed riding it. That much is as sure as night follows day. Your responsibility is to be vigilant and careful as to continue to push that eventuality so far forward that you die of old age first

Just completed over 2000Km. Another 1000Km more to go to complete run-in.. :sweat:

 

CCK, so far after you adjusted the idling to 1rpm, did you encounter bike engine die off during warm up or start up? :confused:

 

Cos I intend to make adjustment soon.

hey tuono414, me juz got my wings last 2 weeks so kinda new to the bike too. There are a few aftermarket exhaust that are available. If I'm not mistaken they are leo vince, arrow and GPR. I think all are slip-on. Im trying to look for a full system :smile:

:cheeky: I adjusted mine since the first day of collection. :cheeky:

 

No problem at all. No engine die off during warm up or start up.

If adjusting yourself, please be careful cos there is two knob. Only 1 is the correct one. Mine is done by Dr ponytail. :cheeky:

FC will greatly depend on the road you used.

If 90% of your ride is normal road(city), the chances of 240km/12l is very common.

If 90% of it is expressway then you will hit 260-280/12l.

I have tested it myself.

I think it is due to the dragging of the move off(pick-up). My theory is, if you can improve on the pick-up then maybe the FC will improve for city condition.

I dont think there is no full system for our Euro 06' model.

If you look at your exhaust you will notice that, there is a air hose from the pipe to the air filter. I'm not sure if you can exclude the hose if you have a full system.

So I guess we can only use slip on for our euro. Anyone had any experience with any of the slip on :confused:
