Remus 'Y' piece and straight through can

Fitted the Y piece and REMUS Off ROAD CAN. took the bike on a spin today 2 up and the performance is eye opening. The bike now accelerates like a rocket. I feel it is running rick so I'll have to sort that out.
Point to mention the can says "not road use" so its a bit illegal but parked next to a Harley and a SUBARU and the exhaust was the quietest there so wheres the problem?

Re: Remus 'Y' piece and straight through can

Whats the 'new' performance like compared to the stock GS1200? Would you say its made it nearly the same ?

Exhaust lettering - I used to have a race pipe on a previous sports bike, that had the 'Not For Road' use stamped on the end.. had someone weld over it & polished it up, then engraved the 'BS' numbers and 'Kite' mark on it... Got pulled over just outside Sherburn with the police doing a 'No. PLt and exhaust check' on all bikes... looked at the exhaust, asked me to blip the throttle... smiled and said 'Off you go....!'

Phil,
J says he will have a try but doesn't think it will work because it is bent and his is straight.
