It's not a problem 98% of any money in my possession goes to moto stuff....If it didn't snow last night i'd ride my bike over there today

Thanks for the offer Desmo. I think i'll keep looking for a new, but cheaper version of that style muffler online. And thanks 7alive for the link. I'm still tossing around some ideas, and I'm open to any as well.

unfortunately, i think my link or desmo's offer is the best you're gonna get for a new shorty reverse cone muffler :/ not trying to discourage you, but i looked darn near everywhere for a reasonably priced one, and that's the cheapest i could find. i think they even raised their prices since i bought mine. if you find one though, please let me know, i'd love to be wrong about that, ha.

Yea if i got the one i saw (it is new btw) it would be $4o plus shipping sent to you ...I just hope they have more than the 2 they showed me or none will be left for me...lol

 

[compoundcycles]

Could you tell if its the 12" version that fits 1.5" exhaust? Do you know what bike it came off of?

 

[DesmoBro]

i'm gonna go buy them tomorrow I only had $9 bux on me that day...i will let you kno all about them with pics an the whole 9 once i have them if you don't want em someone will and i'll use them eventually

 

[7aliveatlast7]

wow, yeah $40 is a freakin STEAL! could you let me know how many they have once you find out, desmo? i might be interested if there's enough to go around.

[Finnigan]

That's what she said!

Sorry, couldn't resist

Thank you but count me out, I'm definitely looking for something a bit smaller.

No Problem Compound....Finnigan They only Had the 2

A little more to pay, but I bought a pair of these off eBay a few weeks back -

http://www.ebay.com.au/itm/NOS-Custom-Shorty-Exhaust-Mufflers-Triumph-Bobber-Honda-/300843481251?pt=Motorcycles_Parts_Accessories&hash=item460bab38a3&_uhb=1#ht_500wt_1056

- and they are just perfect for my CB450 project. 13" long pipes and really well made.

This is another pair for sale from the same seller, so he may have a few in stock.

Been really busy with work lately. Trying to find time to tinker is getting more difficult. Started in on the 2 into 1 collector then found out I'm out of welding gas and the shop is closed on weekends. It's tacked up for now and I'll be cutting angles flush in the coming days.

I want the top pipe to continue straight out from the top header and have the bottom pipe come up into it.

I did not settle on this design my first try. Here's a pile of failed attempts...and the video that helped send me in the right direction for the tools I had on hand.

Right on. Keep it up man. This will be one neat-o scoot.

Great work there - I seriously need to go to welding school, that is one skill I need to develop if I am going to keep playing with bikes and get as radical as you do in the modifications.
