Hey folks, same boat as Peanut's recent post, just a different angle. I think my age is beginning to come through..... chop is prepping for Ontario "safety" certification. Have to fab a buncha stuff up to pass "but" while it's apart. As much as I enjoy the Pandamonium straight pipes.... this thing is too loud. Being the neighborhood hooligan isn't overly appealing nor being on the OPP radar as roll past a patrol car in the back roads.
Of all the exhaust systems over in Mike's - does anyone know which of these is friendly with TC Bros forward controls? I worry the down pipes are going to not pass by the brackets and center support bar. Bike is babied so exposure to rain/dirt etc highly minimal if theres a long term problem with chrome pitting/flaking from exposure to the elements, not worried about that.
As a follow-up, anyone know off the top of their heads how the brackets for the muffler portions attach to the frame? My initial thought would be a U-Bolt/Bracket and then drill out the muffler hanger to align.
Just curious if anyone has a recommendation or seen others do this in the past here. Thanks folks!
