Yup, thats for sure. I actually really like these tires as I mainly ride on the rode. But....Ive slipped around on a few muddy trails and learned to really take it easy

Looks like ya had a good time.

Is the sprocket sizes the same on the Brozz and Shark?

BigWeld · 05-22-2017, 05:20 PM

Somewhere there's a thread with comparisons of vital info, I'll see if I can dig it up....

I've looked, but havnt found anything about stock sprocket tooth on both. Ill count mine when I get a chance. I'm cruising at 55 about 6000rpm " i think"....Not sure if this is the ideal gearing for back roads.

Mine, cruises at 50, 55 no problem at all. Reaching for that 60/60+ mark seems almost uncomfortable to the bike as far as overall sound / vibs / gearing goes. I tend to keep her below at or below the 55mph mark. **Thats actual mph, not what the speedo reads**

Ive got 700 miles on mine now

Just counted, the rear sprocket on my 2016 Brozz is a 47 tooth

Pretty sure you miscounted I counted 46

MOTOXtreme · 05-23-2017, 08:50 PM

Welp, I ordered me that fancy exhaust system this afternoon. I procrastinated for a while as I'm fairly content with how my Brozz runs. But the weight loss alone was pretty much enough to make the switch.

Looking forward to its arrival.

Yeah, 50- 55ish is the comfort zone on mine also. How bad is your speedo off?

Mine is off exactly 5mph by my gps.

Exhaust came in today. I have it installed and I am very glad that I bit the bullet and ordered it. So much so, that I would encourage anyone who is on the fence to do so.

Mine did NOT mount to the exact same mounting locations as the factory. The muffler wanted to be mounted further forward than stock bu the Brozz (and maybe others) happen to have a perfectly located hole there to use.

Mine was a little uncomfortably close to the airbox, so I used a hammer and "smashed" the pipe a little to gain a few mm's clearance.

I have not had it on the road but around the property it is defiantly louder, (not obnoxious, just sounds deeper, better) and does seem to allow a significant amount of air flow.

Best mod I've done thus far~

I'm pretty sure you bought the same one I did. I got mine in 3 days.

I did have to bend it a bit and I used a rubber hammer for that. I also used header wrap.

BigWeld · 05-27-2017, 09:50 AM

That's the one, in Titanium color. And Brian was right about the Brozz having s perfectly placed hole for mounting the muffler. I just stacked a shitload of 3/8" SS flat washers to space it out correctly, and used the long bolt that's included with the exhaust
