#826743 drkstr22 (User) Gold Boarder Posts: 994 Hot Licks? Will they work? 3 Years, 4 Months ago   OK......This is at the top of my mod list for the winter. Would be a perfect fit for the theme I have going on with this bike. Website says its an easy install. I am skeptical. Does anyone know if this will work with my Freedom Fishtails? Do I have to remove the baffles? Would I need to rejet? The price is cheap enough. I really want to do this! Anybody? http://www.hotlicksexhaust.com/ https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jR9SEFxPrrw   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #826765 HK45 (User) I'll Make Ya Famous Platinum Boarder Posts: 1599 Re:Hot Licks?

I'd say buy them if you want them.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #826766 Arps (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 4415 Re:Hot Licks?

You have to run pretty rich or ive seen propane injectors used.   Logged     The administrator has disabled public write access. #826767 Derailed75 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2637 Re:Hot Licks? Will they work? 3 Years, 4 Months ago   A lot of these that I have seen retard the ignition to put unburnt gas in the exhaust. This is not good for the motor. I would bet its even worse for a 2 cylinder than for a bigger motor. I would not do this unless the fuel for the flame is from another source like a small propane bottle.   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access. #826768 HK45 (User) I'll Make Ya Famous Platinum Boarder Posts: 1599 Re:Hot Licks?

Will they work? 3 Years, 4 Months ago   I have looked into this as well. There is two types, pasive and actice ignition. One you rev the motor then hold a momentary button to kill the ignition so the raw fuel is sent down the pipes to the spark plugs in the pipes for a big flame. The other like others said manipulates the ignition so it will idle with flame but smaller. I have wanted to do this about 3 years now but i dont want to drill my freedoms to put in a spark plug and fuel supply lines.......yet packing on the baffles would need to go at the least. And as far as jetting it richer just pull the choke silly   Logged     Last Edit: 2014/10/10 06:56 By smokescreens.     The administrator has disabled public write access. #826773 Derailed75 (User) Platinum Boarder Posts: 2637 Re:Hot Licks?

Platinum Boarder Posts: 3103 Re:Hot Licks? Will they work? 3 Years, 4 Months ago   Flames would be cool for sure. If it were me and I wanted to save my motor I would go with the propane torches instead of the unspent fuel route. Plus propane will give you blue flames were as the unspent fuel is basically a single big red flame. Just my $.02   Logged       The administrator has disabled public write access.
