Now then 'vicar...

More pics please...you are too cruel fishing us in like that

Looking great- them cans are pretty large though eh? How does it go?

Hi,
there 2 1/4 bore. I'm going to cut them down (which will prob be another thread titled how to cut carbon fibre...lol) abit when i make my stainless link pipes, this was a quickish bodge on to see if it ran ok and sounded nice which it does on both counts, it sounds well deep and nice like a sort a baby sp1 or something but reasonably quiet.....
I'll take more pics when i put the bellypan back on and clean it.

Thanks for looking

Happy new year

Ian

I used to work part time in fishing tackle shop when i was an old boy. (I know!) We used to use blunt hacksaws to cut carbon when repairing rods. New, sharp blades have a tendancy to 'rip' the carbon and seperate the fibres.

I believe you can get carbon-specific blades for hacksaws. They have powdered metal stuck to them instead of teeth and effectively 'sand' through the carbon instead of cutting it.

is that a custom system or one you bought? as i notice you still have the pillion pegs attached.

Hiya,
thanks for the hints with the hacksaw blades, i've got me welder back off me mate now so i can start getting things finished in some stainless in a couple a weeks hopefully, so i can get them cut down a bit.
and yeah i made it out of some bits a scrap pipe and the standard back pipes cut in half-ish.
I dont know if to have them exiting at the same place (like they are at tho mo) or offset a bit, seeing as the rest of the bike is a one sided...lol......
Cheers
