| |  Long POO POO can be a bit of a booger
I got my long poo poo pipe today. Ordered it 3 days ago from bicycle-engines.com This this is a NEAR perfect fit for the Point Beach. Still I'm fussing some with it. It wont work around the large frame adapter that I got from Boy Go Fast, so that has to be addressed. My goal is to get the bike looking a little more like a really old British bike. This helps quite a bit. One bad thing is you can't get inside the muffler and look around in there, drilling holes etc... It's welded up tight. So when it's on, I'll send some pics if anyone is interested.

Here's a pic. Still needs some slight adjustment and I have to figure out what to do about the front mount. Nice thing about this pipe is I killed 2 birds, did away with the front pipe that hangs down that I don't like the look of on this bike, and the muffler will hide the tensioner!

Ok, not so thrilled with the new pipe. Bike vibrates like crazy. I need to secure the pipe and find a stronger mount for the front of the motor. Anybody tell me what the stock setting is for the carb clip? I moved it on the old pipe when Dax suggested to do that along with drilling holes in the exhaust.

Another update. I feel like I'm talking to myself... oh who cares... Anyway, I moved the clip, and adjusted the throttle cable which was to tight. Things are about 80% of how it was. I'm getting there... The muffler isn't as quiet as I had hoped, and it crackles a lot more like a 2 stroke than the old one. Seems to have more power on the hills. I must say this old kings motor has been very forgiving for all the crap I've put it through. I wish I had 2 or 3 more just like it.

Second notch from the top for stock setting.

Ok guys, made a semi temporary fix for the front mount. I'll have a metal shop make the mounting I want this winter. I got my bearing style tensioner on, and my problem is the pipe connects right before it. I noticed some blow by showing up at the connection. SO what sealant can I use that won't harden up so I can't get the muffler off to adjust the tensioner?
