    A few MV Agusta tweaks with help from TLRMAN

    I spent the morning installing different pipes, powercommander and sync the throttle bodies....Actually I did most of the watching while Mark and his brother Scott did most of the work! LOL Heres a few pics, and THANKS TO Mark aka TLRMAN!!

    The bike is awesome now, the throttle boddies were way out of whack and the bike stumbled upon initial throttle, which made starting from a stop a pain in the ass.

    We only needed to make one trip to the MV dealer to buy a part!

    If there was a higher ranking than "the man" Mark would be at least two ranks higher.

    No shit, huh? He fell off the face of the earth when it comes to riding.

    We usually see him at least once at NHMS.

    Mark, there's always this coming Sunday.

    I've seen Mark a few times recently. He's around. He hurt his ankle recently, which has kept him off two wheels.

    John, we need sound clips of the exhaust

    I bought the bike used and it came with the Arrow twin can setup...Sounded awesome but the F4 needs to have the proper 4 pipe setup me thinks. So I bought the Arrow RG3 setup, which is the same size and shape of the stockers but much more free flowing. I elimiated the cat with a bypass pipe. Of course for looks I sent the whole shebang out and had it JetHot coated black. Looks pissah now!! The sound is somewhat subdued but if you know my other bike, RC51, then you know I get my loud fix with that bike and this one didnt need to be overly loud. Im very happy with the way the bike is running now!!

    Nice, John...we've got to hook the MVs up some time for a ride. I pass through Danvers all the time heading out for rides.

    Yeah, I'm still alive....
    Blew my ankle out, and had to take a breather.
    Just recently unemployed, so I've been busy pounding on doors.

    Life is almost good!


    The MV sounds good, John hit the "Poor Man's Dyno", and it sounded like a 4 into 1.

    And here is the Arrow RG3 pipes. Aftermarket performance pipes with stock size and shape! As I mentioned they have been sent out to JetHot and coated flat black. I think it looks SICK now!

    Everytime I see the MV Agusta star wheel on the SSSA, I get a little sad I didn't buy Joel's Brutale... now... how can I get one of those to fit on the VFR?! LOL.
