Rejeting is very important. Changing to custom exhaust usually lowers back pressure this causes a lean condition. Lean fuel causes over heating, backfiring and popping back through the valves. In short term valve and piston damage, in long term major engine damage.

i imagine that it truly is continually a strong idea to rejet the carbs after replacing your exhaust. in case you improve air bypass you should improve gas. a bike that runs lean for an prolonged era of time is merely inquiring for issues. in case you meant on going via a broking service they must be able to keep you assure, yet those motorcycles are bullet evidence so no actual favor to agonize. I had an complete exhaust and skill commander on my motorbike after I picked it up new. i can't say for particular that i did not void the guaranty inspite of the indisputable fact that the year is now up with none issues, heck I easily have in no way had a topic on a Honda motorbike.

Well depends, If you got those pipes for performance yes it is important, but if you only got them cause they were loud then no. But I would re-jet anyway, simply bc it doesnt costs that much, and the benefits you get from it.

re-jet ,if you run lean it will get that motor very hot,hopefully not enough to melt pistons.
