Brendan McGinnis: The MLM Sidebleed people's pipe performs like a circuit in terms of the bottom end pull however it has a more gradual performance taper-off on the top end. It pulls a bit longer than the circuit pipe and pulls a bit longer, with a tiny bit less punch on the bottom and a bit more punch in the middle. H95 or Doppler going on this girl soon. As for the cylinder head temps, lightyears better with the 1977 hicomp head. It has so much more fin surface area with a layout that makes sense (wider coverage on the exhaust side of he cylinder) and no decomp to leak.Temps brought down noticeably over stock. Works with the athena with only minimal sanding so it doesn't hit the head, it comes about 46mm diameter already. Cuts well too if milling.


Marc B: Nice bike! how are the cyl head temps? did you notice a big difference between the MLM sidebleed vs. the circuit pipe?
