[QUOTE="greg brillus, post: 54424, member: 597"] Thanks David You always do a tremendous job with the photo's, Ok guys well here is the exhaust......you will either like it or hate it, at the end or the day we had to build it with the ability to keep the noise limit down. At our National championships at Lakeside this September, we were told that if our bikes showed up without a muffler, that we might as well put it back on the trailer and take it home. So to combat this, we had to guess the length of pipes given their 1 3/4 diameter, we wanted to run a 2 into 1 system which will automatically help with noise, and we needed a good enough muffler to lower noise without choking the engine. I can't remember if I told you but the chap who did this system is the same fellow who did the exhausts on the "Britten" motorcycles...He has been doing this type of work all his life, and that was good enough for me....The only way we could have kept both pipes running forward and under would have been to run 2 completely separate pipes and mufflers. I may look at this down the track but for now, I need to start with something. The workmanship is outstanding, and although it is a bit "Out there" to look at...I don't mind the look at all. The hand made stainless muffler is a work of art. Immediately after I took these photos, I stripped it back to the bare bones with only the rods sticking out of the crankcases....it's time to get on with the heads/valves etc., Cheers for now.....Greg.
