Well its been a year coming. I finally got my son Mike to help me make a video of my system that I have posted about before starting last year. Maybe you've caught my pictures of the installation but here is how it turned out in sound. Good performance, at least none lost, "seems" way better throughout the rpm range. AFV's 95F&R. Open air box, K&N next to get more air in. Well satisfied. Worth the fabricating work. Bob

That makes a nice noise! Seems a little loud, but not bad compared to a lot of other bikes of various makes and models.
Since I can't seem to find it.. I'd like to see some pics of what you've fabricated for your exhaust.

Looks and sounds great Bob. Would you repost the details of what and how you make it?

Garrett2 and Hellgate, here ya go. Not real pretty in mockup but finished & painted all is hidden behind my full lowers anyways.

On the first link pan down to my post. Latest version though, as you see, in the second link, I changed the outlet to a more straight out, polished, then the curve out originally. Looks better I think.

I like polished stainless, so I'll be going this route instead, with 304 SS tubing.




However, I do like the sound that you've gotten out of it.

Many nice turbo type mufflers out there guys but I chose, a Walker, one that is only 13" long by 7" wide and only 3 1/4" thick as it was the only one I could fit under my full lowers and have the proper ground clearance. Mine is installed right under the engine and the reason for some hot wrenching on it to clear things. I believe ground clearance will suffer if not directly in the middle of the engine and up high enough. Bob
