I was thinking about getting a fat cat expansion chamber for it.

 

[headtrama]

Got some more parts for the bike today getting ready to finish it up should be done soon .

 

[wezwheels]

dam that`s beautiful, nice job bro. got some skills bud. i like seeing someone with skill and less opinion. this place is full of no skill people with a lot of opinions.

We like feedback here... regardless of whether or not their skills are up to your standards. A fresh outlook is valuable even if it's simply regarding aesthetics - which requires no "skill" at all.

Those welds look excellent!
Perfect tank!

 

[headtrama]

Okay so here is where i am at right now . I pressured checked the tank all welds were sound with no leaks . I painted the tank black i think it looks better, in the morning im going to paint the chain guard black .I hope to have this completed by Friday.

 

[locell]

[headtrama]

I got to take it for a spin today and must say it rides nice .

Looking good headtrama...

FYI, I have put a muffler on the end and it killed the performance of the pipe BIG TIME! I do not like them because they are loud but man do they make a difference. Every bike we have put that pipe always has a 3-5mph increase.

I got a used puter, let me see if I can download a pic of the pipe with muffler

Well I could not find a good pic of it but found this one, it's the one on the bottom in the bag..you can see the muffler.

 

[headtrama]

Ill vouch for the load part of that pipe lol . I made a silencer for the pipe but mounted it further back on the frame behind the crank. I can still feel a performance gain with it and it sounds a lot better. My friend has the same motor in his bike and he says mine feels like it has more power.Here is a picture of what i did it's mounted with just a hose right now but ill be bending a piece of pipe for it soon .

 

[Dave31]

Yeah let me add that even with the muffler it is way better then the stock one. I was referring to getting everything out of the motor. We spent months trying different things for Death Race. Awesome for the street but not so good with muffler for DR.

Looks great

 

[headtrama]

Thanks it was a fun little project and i like the way the pipe looks over the stock one .
