How is it going to mount on the bike?
I would think it will be loud as well. The remus uses two cans of that size. Can't wait to here a sound clip. 8-)

I know this may sound a bit daft but........ wouldnt the forward motion of the bike hamper the escape of the exhaust gases ? I assume the can comes out at the front ?

:headbang:

think about it Rob, the outlet is at 90 degrees to the airflow of the bikes tavel, if anything it will create a partial vacuum in front of the outlet :idea:

Hmmm, dunno about that... However, suffice to say it will be no different that the stock exhaust...

i'm working on the mounting brackets, hence why i needed the rear ally bracket although i think theres a way round that, yes it'll probably be loud, but thats what someone asked me to build :)

looking good there albert;

if i didnt already have one of your cans, i would love to give one of those a try; dont think theres any danger of it being too quiet.

curious to see how it compares on a dyno to your standard can when its done. ( form over function ? )

P.S. those internal baffle blanking tubes you did for me are a winner - the 50% one gives it just enough of a lift. ( and its still loads quieter than my guzzi )

Hmmmm, might have to get one of them off you in the spring!
I take it you're going to be testing it on the dyno etc?
