Let's see them pipes!

Hey Nubster, nothing special. The tank is a sportster, the rear fender is a HD front fender turned around. The frame is a stock Yamaha frame with a Black Widow tail welded on. The rear wheel is a HD with an HD brake rotor. I modified the stock Yamaha brake anchor to work with the HD rotor. The bars are just some 11" bars I found at the old salvage building in Lockport NY (That story was on this site once). The rest of the bike is just bits,and pieces I either had or made. Hope all that helps.
Hey ChopsCa, I love those flappers also. They sound great when you're at idle at a light. (clank,clank clank),and they look cool when you blip the throttle,and they open up.

Were did you get these mufflers??

Anyone have a sound clip with the shorty mufflers?

Some interesting exhaust designs in here. I myself would like a scrambler styled exhaust for my XS650g cafe project I am working on.

Is there any company out there that offers a scrambler exhaust, or am I looking at having one custom crafted?

One requirement is that they cannot be straight pipes. Maine inspection law requires an expanded muffler section. I also would need to have removable baffles, so I can more easily match up the exhaust flow to my needs.

I shall check him out. As long as I can keep scoring sources for what I need, I am golden!
Thank you for the link.

Nice curves on those. They baffled in any way?
Also, could I see some nice pics of the tank? It kinda looks like the nice jeweled finish on a Weatherby bolt.

No baffles yet I'll put some in once it's running
The tank will be powder coated candy gold tangerine orange

If you can find just the right baffles, you can end up with a nice, broad torque curve and a really nice sound. (the reason I like the current exhaust on my Honda. Flows awesome up top, but with just enough restriction down low...)

Looking at them pipes, I imagine you'll have some great top end responce. I just hope the shortness doesn't rob you of any bottom end torque.
