Default Motorcyle help (cruisers)

I am hoping one of you knows a little about cruisers. I just bought a VTX 1300c a few weeks ago and have an exhaust on order ( hard krome 2.5" american classic straights). Do I really need to rejet?

Secondly, how many of you ride cruisers?

I received conflicting information when I changed the exhaust on my bike. Most think that if you don't change the air cleaner then rejetting is not necessary; however you will run lean. My bike is fuel-injected so I added a Power Commander Fuel Injector Module and downloaded a custom map from Dynojet. There are many discussion boards where you will get more specific information. I would start at www.cruisercustomizing.com

I work at a Honda-Yamaha dealership building motorcycles, and I would highly reccomend rejetting the bike...
