Been through the shop and they claim the 2nd gear bogging out is due to stock pipes with no slip ons. Every place i can find suggests tj brutal backdraft pipes but those seem close if not shorter. Would those pipes require straight cut so baffles can be added?

thats a bad tune. i have tuned a bike with the crappiest pipes on earth and it can be done. you dsont need baffles unless youre trying to turn the volume down. now if you have a very restrictive intake, and open pipes, that can be a bit harder to tune. id siuggest opeing the intake with some stacks and then getting backdrafts and you will be able to tune just fine.

Same shop which is the only one in town said brakes wouldn't work with .4 so had to change to 5.1 brake fluid...thank you very much for the info.

@M3rc well heres the thing dude... your bike service manual literally calls for DOT FOUR brake fluid. DOT 4 is glycol basedand 5 is silicone based. 5 is pretty rare on anything modern. All the honda shadows need DOT 4. that shop is full of retards. 5.1 will ruin that brake system from the inside out. I'm sorry youre dealing with these monkeys man. that sucks.
