They are simple design and tanks, mine let go a few years ago, because my dad forgot to add some oil before running it 😛 Rod let go.

Forgot to add this to the original thread…

Ian and I cut down the muffler about 2 inches also (it was scratched and hacked up from the previous job, so I thought I’d clean it up and take a little off)

I cut the baffle down a bit and repacked the muffler to fit also.

AND let me tell you…stainless steel is a bitch to drill through. (Until we realized that tapping it first helped a bunch!)

Yes, that says GAY, because for the life of me I could not seem to cut level

Overall it turned out great, it is completely flush now, no scratches, not hacked up, and sounds amazing :tup:

I figured if I wrote something he knew well where he needed to grind it would help concentration. Worked well 😉

No offense but i like this pipe better than tims, and although tims wheels are awesome, I’ve never been a fan of trying to change out hardware that was engineered for a specific use… ie, 03-04 636…

i dont ever understand why anybody would do that…

do you think your mix and match engineering, compares to the millions of dollars in R and D that goes into these machines? The geometries are setup this way for a reason, also, that swingarm is black, and the frame of this bike is silver… thatd look dumb with different color parts.

not to mention, unless you had a matching front wheel with the necessary spacers itd look even dumber when the wheels dont match.
