And why may that be Sir Tom ?

I certainly won't be able to hear the difference and am hoping for a performance increase..BUT....if there IS no increase....I will install a normal muffler......Please don't be angry Tom....I'm still feeling my way ......but what do you think of the bike itself ?

Thanks,
Chris

Chris,
It has good lines and should make a great looking MB. I love that bobbed rear fender, really! Keep us posted with photos and if its too loud, I'll wear hearing protection.

Here's the new build and I actually sold it this morning......tidy profit too !

......also there was NO difference in sound....and no difference in performance either.....so why did I bother ?...( scratches head )

Laters,

Nice build. It looks like a Dyno for about half the price.

I thought so too and was pleased at how it turned out....it was the first build that I had absolutely no help with what-so-ever.....the whole thing cost me not even $275.00 and I got $700.00 for it.

Thanks,
Salty
