I hear the sweet sounds of freedom

[@tammystevens5337]

Love the bikes bud but you need a bigger garage lol :)

[@oregonoutback7779]

Ms. Block has the cleanest hands of any motorcycle mechanic I've ever seen :)) No big dirty thumbs up for you !! As for that exhaust .... it's the ugliest thang I've ever seen, and that's why I absolutely LOVE it. Another great video B-crew!

[@mrroboto4321]

got myself some vertical twins from them last year, could not be happier with them. they even welded in a custom torque cone for me. and they sound amazing and look even better. love em!

[@Bikerchick-dt8py]

Great video guys! Kudos to Ms Blockhead!! 😉👍🏻Be safe! 🏍😎Love the nail color, too!! 😍💅🏼

[@micahdavis6778]

Hello from San Diego! I found your channel about 4 months ago and I have very much enjoyed them. I found my self watching some of your test ride vids and reading comments people have made. I watched your learning vids and it took a lot of worry away for me. In my mind I thought it was a bit harder to ride than it is. Now a few months later I have my M1 and waiting delivery of my new ( new too me ) 2006 ( FXDI ) Dyna super glide. Just wanted to say thanks for making the vids and how to’s. Made the learning and testst easier for me.

[@BlockheadMoto]

Glad the videos helped out Micah! Thanks for the support, hope you enjoy your new 06' FXDI! Ride safe man 👍

[@loadtheskillrounds4167]

I have short shots on my 48 but I like that exhaust soooo much! Good choice! You got more lean angle and better access to the belt and everything, love it

[@markfragoza2162]

couldn’t have done it without this video. Thanks dude 🍻

[@dbzacs]

A woman that really appreciates a good exhaust, that's a keeper. Not that you needed me to tell you.

[@patmanwainwright3423]

The Sportster is coming a long nicely great sound looking Awesome and I really enjoy watching you VLOGS thanks man and have a good one

[@zackbethard1759]

I know she's going to love that exhaust. I have the same one and I love it more and more everytime I ride!

[@hodags84]

I’ve been looking for a trick to get the gaskets in without needing a special tool. A genius hack with putting the flange on to get it in. Thanks!!

[@CelticRider84]

Special thanks to Ms Blockhead for doing the work on the bike, and showing all the ladies (and nay sayer gents) out there that motorcycling, and working on motorcycles, isn't just for the boys!! #GirlsCanDoItToo

[@BaggerBro]

That was a fun install. Had a good time, came out really nice!!

[@maximumeffortflsb2715]

Dang man I totally want to save up for a kinetics exhaust on my Iron 1200. I love all the videos you do.

[@shanemkeyes1]

You are a true savior! Tip on gaskets is a game changer!

[@lucerosaenz2793]

WOOOOOO!!!! THANK YOU, I've been wanting to see this install!

[@_lowcountry]

I’ve been wanting a kinetic exhaust since I got my sporty two years ago but ugh they’re so expensive. One day...

[@DrDante221]

Great demonstration with lots of helpful tips !

[@dustinhxc]

"DAY TWO" haha I love your added in comedy bits. Damn this thing sounds sick! I never would imagine it to be that easy to install exhaust. You make me want to do my own mods as I should. Great vids man!

[@Malignantt1]

Its not easy, you eill run into a lot of bullshit

[@TalismanRocks]

Looks and sounds amazing. Question, have you had any issues with the exhaust only being supported on the 2 engine ports? I'd prefer a bracket securing it to the frame of the motorcycle as well.

[@Robert_Browne]

Kinetic cycles. thanks for the link. They do some really good work.

[@4-n52]

A good exhaust is like a musical instrument. In this case it even looks the part.

[@flound3rpuss362]

Oh my god I was just thinking about buying a kinetic exhaust... perfect timing ;)

[@zacharyfett2491]

It sounds really awesome!

[@evilmuscle]

Awesome video guys and the exhaust stands out , I really like the welds and everything about the exhaust , completely different in appearance from factory or other aftermarket mass production exhausts . I'm subscribing and if I get me an exhaust I'll let them know where I seen their product first

[@hg56man]

Hi, how did you configure your FP3 for this exhaust?

[@garykussasky6612]

I can not believe the work involved putting these on I put some Cobra exhausts on my Kawasaki Vulcan was basically plug and go wow..!!! ?????

[@baham9217]

That's beautiful music right there! ✌️

[@andrewmccarthy4144]

If your object is to SHOW us something, Slow down your camera movement. Also, How To: videos should have everything done, on-camera. If not, what's the point? Despite my constructive criticism, I learned quite a bit about the stock system, which was the reason I found and watched this video. Thank you!

[@ganjadavid9716]

Nice ... Great work Blockhead...

[@clarkbabin9799]

Miss block frog killer. Lol. Props doing your own work

[@clarkbabin9799]

Thats not stock intake either ?

[@yamilavila]

Hello friend, I hope you can help me with this question, I have a 48 and I installed some handmade exhaust, I just found out that I need to buy the fuelpack fp3, I already asked for it, my doubt is that configuration of exhaust in a matter of brand Of exhaust Generic , the model of my escape is 2-1 type two brothers, should I choose that or the one that says generic? I wait for your answer, I don't want to do something wrong, thanks. Greetings. Very good videos

[@Chads3283]

What did you do with the old exhaust mounting bracket? Im having trouble finding that exact one 🤦‍♂️

[@Kirkpatrick82]

i love your exhaust video sound good

[@vipercab]

It looks good but I can't see how much leg clearance do you have - is it fairly easy to get burned while riding?

[@maximilianrockefeller8854]

And that exhaust looks sick AF 😍

[@johnkeane513]

hey blockhead, being that you live in a warm climate what gloves would you recommend for riding in summer weather, i have tried a few but they did not work good hands were sweaty as hell...lol....appreciate any help

[@justinturner4850]

I freaking love Kenetic exhaust! I “cheaped out” and bought a $500 exhaust instead of the $800 Kenetic exhaust and I regret it every time I see or hear “Kenetic”. yes you’ll get burned. No you can’t have a passenger. But holy shit those exhausts are beautiful!

[@steveriggsws4]

Hey blockhead, I've been looking around everywhere for front turn signal relocation kits and I wasn't sure which one would work and was wondering if you still know where you got yours from ?

[@Blznstang]

I’m thinking about pulling the trigger on a set of the twist ones

[@octavioescott1022]

Just curious- would you still be able to 2-up with the coil? Or would it burn your passengers foot off?

[@engir63]

I sat through this so do I get a participation trophy also? Nice nails Lady Blockhead

[@BaggerBro]

nope!

[@baranquillero12]

I got two of their exhaust for my girls bike and mine. Waiting for them to get in, but I’m wondering what map (fp3) did you use for the tuning?

[@massiellreyes8067]

Hello I would like to know what type of remapping did you use on your engine tuner?

[@SleepingGaint]

Where did you get the thinner gaskets from? Thanks

[@nasomaz]

sweet exhaust, my only question is , does it hinder the capability of 2-up? is the exhaust going to blow on the passenger ?

[@BlackShiningArmor]

nasomaz I’m wondering the same thing, every once in a while always enjoy someone on my back :)

[@TSpencer30]

I asked kinetic on facebook and they said the coil model works fine with passengers.

[@nasomaz]

Thanks for the info !

[@FantasticMrDrone]

What airfilter and head breather do you have on that Sporter 48?? Thank you

[@mostaza1464]

Can you please share the brand and model of your pneumatic lift jack you used in the video? Thank you!

[@tacooffroadforlife6533]

Haha your wife accidently murdered a frog 😂 Love the channel man , any long road trip videos coming up ?

[@BaggerBro]

Maybe, if Block can get off work!!!! It actually would be epic...

[@ujoto]

so I'm getting new custom exhaust just like kinetic but from Spyramoto but I don't have a tuner to do stage 1, does Harley Davidson dealer are able to do it for you

[@geoffozevans4500]

Great looking exhaust, 😎👍

[@ernestarocha3530]

Keeping the exhaust raw? or heat wrap?

[@BaggerBro]

Raw, seeing the stainless steel go through its color changes is what the end users look for, its not for every one. I love it !!!

[@razifraship]

Which Kinetic exhaust model? Can’t find which one...

[@lanefinley9772]

Are those forward controls or extended fowards? Wanted to move mine on the 883

[@frankreia4750]

I once seen the gaskets frozen for like 20 minutes shrinks em enough to slide in with fingers

[@BloodR3dWhit3AndBlu3]

You never made a video showing your tattoos. I was wondering what’s the meaning behind your matching triangle tattoos on your forearms.

[@FernandoDiaz-dx3hm]

I have a flatliner on my iron 1200 had to send back cause they place the rear sensor in the wrong place they came through though

[@Dustin359]

If Eric hates frogs, he should really try different seasoning.

[@noahrangel9107]

I wrapped my pipes, replaced my exhaust gaskets and when I started it there was white smoke coming from the head, is that normal

[@bdtaylor1979]

I guess I’m lucky. I’ve changed a few exhaust systems using the old exhaust gaskets and never had any exhaust leaks.

[@03697824]

What kind of bars are those?? I have a 2016 48 and am having trouble finding a good seat for me and a passenger and rear sets

[@JetsonRING]

Any stage 3 or 4 engine kit on that sporty or is the engine basically stock?

[@TheSevenboy127]

That red light on your cluster tho?

[@anthonyesposito8668]

is the gasket install the same for the thin ones since they are flat?

[@CelticRider84]

9:37 to 9:42 -- Anyone else expect "Do I annoy you?" -- "Not at all." -- and then the camera to go flying as Erick hits Blockhead with a wet willie from behind?

[@SleepingGaint]

Which tuner did you run?

[@TheSevenboy127]

Is this a leg cooker?

[@michaeluresti3027]

I had to dremal my 883 sensor too, to my Thunder headers exhaust, thought I was the only one, lol...

[@chrisodell2698]

How passenger friendly is this exhaust?

[@gabrielriobo3226]

Hi blockhead,! How are You? Only test harleys?

What auto tune did you map?

[@SKYNET84AI]

what are the torque specs for sportster 2020 flange bolts on exhaust

[@kurtcom4024]

Did you need to remap ?

[@FranBunnyFFXII]

What on earth is that airbox?

[@vector6977]

Wonder why they only blended in the Y collector, it would look better if they didn't.

[@cobrasix9747]

why do you need to disconect the 02 sensor from battery cant you just tak them off the exhaust then put exhaust back on and reconect 02 sensors just asking

[@larrymagee8758]

Frog killer!

[@brandonnuziard3871]

What handlebars are those?

[@harris8390]

how does it run with this pipe?

[@LOLewie]

blockhead is a card carrying member of #beardgang. nice.

[@dailybugle2147]

Had no idea it was so easy to do. Got the same bike and harley quoted me 1.5k in labor. Thats highway robbery. Gonna do it myself.

[@baranquillero12]

How did you Tune it?

[@elarr8733]

I'd be so pissed if I bought an exhaust and ended up unexpectedly having to Dremel clearance for the O2 sensor.

[@YouMotorcycle]

Great video, aside from the drums, bass, and harp musical intermission (wtf dude? lol)

[@jdpete200]

haha johnny 5 is alive! No disassemble!!

[@BaggerBro]

Finally, somebody who understands me !! lol

[@MrPAULONEAL]

Disassemble? Reassemble?

[@troeteimarsch]

it's a shame that we riders from germany aren't allowed to put any of these things on our bikes. we got such weird regulations over here, it sucks man!

[@tommycooker3996]

EXHAUST! But on a sidenote: not too hot near the legs?

[@BaggerBro]

yes lol

[@fflnny92]

Just want to let you know, the Texas flag in your garage is hanging backwards (white should be on the left).

[@cowboys1275]

Texas flag 👍🏽

[@cobrasix9747]

I welded for merlin those welds would never pass

[@skuxxskits]

just my opinion but I think those exhausts look awful, idk I just get put off seeing the weld marks and it makes me think of a diy home jobby I mean no hate, awesome video and it only matters what she likes of course its her bike.

[@guyconnell9308]

pretty sure the heat shields don't need to come off to remove the stock exhaust

[@larrymagee8758]

Getting that stock exhaust off will be a BITCH!

[@MrAtlas-sg7yc]

How much is it

[@justicehagins]

R.I.P to that frog 🐸 😵

[@danielpriestley2926]

Anyone know if they make a pipe for m8's yet?

[@BlockheadMoto]

For Harley, at the moment Kinetic only makes them for Sportsters. Believe me, I asked. Wanted one for my Dyna! lol

[@monkeymott]

Sounds good, looks ok, welds are trash.

[@theChestnutMtnTinman]

How does she like them now ain’t she thought they were so loud

[@hamzahzee3843]

Great job buddy. It's too loud lol

[@coodude1492]
