Its been a min but i worked on dads bike a lite tonight . It seems a broken turn signal stem in the frame got missed. We tried drilling it out burning it out then i snapped a eazyout off in it haha nothing eazy now. So i said fuck it and cut out the bad frame rail and welded in another. it sucks but here we are and there is no point in cring about it, they make paint everyday

 

[bradj]

And here is another stupit hard to find sticker. There is a sucker born every day

 

[bradj]

Im also getting ready to fix a little rust on the seat pan so i can put a hundred dollar seat cover on.did i mention theres a sucker born every day :-\

Pipes are looking good. Ive always wondered what went into building a set of expansion chambers, but never wanted to do the required reading lol!
Keep up the good work!

 

[bradj]

For some money we might be able to come up with a set with dg spec wink wink

Brad,

Nice work, but what pipe dimensions are you using or is it a straight copy of pipes that you know work? The reason I ask is that most chambers have a parallel section in the belly to get to the correct tuned length and pipes without a belly tend to be a bit peaky.

I see pipes in your future with fully tapered headers and two stage cones........ ;-)

 

[bradj]

Teazer i said the same thing idk but the guy i got the pipes from only messes with titans there is no other bike it seems he is the guy that use to build dads race motors he told me what brand the pipe but i forgot ill see if i cant find out and thanks

 

[teazer]

Ocelot perhaps. They are the only pipes I can think of without a belly. I did see a posting about early Allspeeds and that showed them without a belly section. It will be interesting to see how they work.
