2002 Triumph Bonneville America Questions & Answers
Can i remove the balance pipe on my guzzi calefornia, what will be the advantages and disadvantages
Ahh to be young again , I still want to go faster, and the only reason to remove this is to maybe get a actually very minor touch of a pinch of a glimpse of extra Vrooom, but the disadvantages are overwhelming, keeping it stock , it is what the engineers developed to make your bike a rocket. you can put virtually any gas in it and go to any heights or altitude and depth or to the beach and your rocket will continue to perform amazingly like a rocket. start changing it and then its jets for the carb and then it wont pass emissions then its the add on loud pipe to let it breathe.
your bike will go well and sell well, when your done with it.

Exhaust Popping Troubleshooting
My decel popping stopped as soon as I removed the air injection, but started back with aftermarket pipes. I adjusted the idle mix screws to richen it up and the popping almost went away.
Find answers/discussion at bonnevilleamerica dot com forum. Great sources for parts are bellacorse dot com, and newspeedmaster dot com. I don't know any European sourses for aftermarket bits.
