Hi

I'm looking for tips on slip on exhausts for the Desert Sled that doesn't need a remap.
Found the Vance & Hines Hi-Output which they say don't need a remap. Anyone tried that?
Also been looking at the Zard Zuma, but that's is twice as much $$.

Regards Matthias

I have a Zard Zuma, was fine without a remap but running much better with one.

Ordered a V&H now. Let you how it runs once installed.

any update? I'm also not keen on going through the ECU flash process.. maybe eventually, but in the short term just want to lose the cat - is this a recipe for disaster?

If you are worried about warranty you could install a Rapid Bike fuel management system, it’s adaptive and you can undo everything if you want to. Give Bellissimoto a call, they are very helpful. I just ordered one and a decat for my Scrambler 1100.

Sounds and looks awesome, can’t notice any performance difference but will be adding a Power Commander next week, I’ll update after I install it

Plenty say they don't need a remap and often you can get away without it if you really don't want to....

But all the exhausts for the Scrambler bar the official Term shotgun/full throttle exhaust and a Remus TUV compliant, remove the cat.
This is a huge change to the exhaust and to have your bike run properly, you need a remap to adjust for this.

At best, decat exhaust with no remap will run sub-optimally but ok.
At worst (like mine did) it will smell weird, sound weird and feel very limp in the mid range.

You just don't get the benefit, besides lower weight without tuning the bike to the new exhaust. An out of the box Rexxer remap isn't that expensive and just a no brainer to go with your fancy new exhaust.
