Ive got a question.Does anyone run a big bore eldo with stock peashooter ambo mufflers?I bought some mac fishtails to run on my eldo.After a long ride the motor does not feel abnormally hot while sitting on the bike at a stop.When i put the peashooters back on the motor seems alot hotter after a ride,possibly due to the greatly increased backpressure?I dont know.I like the sound of the mac mufflers but they interfere with the center stand,I must remove it to run the macs.I would like to run the peashooters and keep my center stand.My concern is that the peashooters are too restrictive now that my motor is close to 1000cc as opposed to the 700cc motor that these mufflers were designed for.The header pipes are noticeably hotter when i run them,i can feel more heat coming off of the valve covers too.Would appreciate any kind of feedback/advice.Thanks
