magnet on center stand and laser exhaust

Post by atown154 »

My r1150r has a magnet inside a plastic case zip tied to the center stand . Does anyone have this and if so what is its function ? Is it necessary ? Does anyone have experience with a company called laser exhaust ? Looking for info. on product quality .

The magnet is likely the previous owner's trick to activate traffic signal in-ground inductive loops.

Laser is a real deal quality exhaust manufacturer. No personal experience by yours truly, but the company's R1150R mockup is/was decidedly bad a$$.
