SBP - Expansion Chamber Pipe

[Pablo]

Steve - please PM or email your real name and I'll check, but if you are in AUS or UK, they are on the way. Just a day or two behind your pipe. Everyone in the USA should have their springs already.

Yes you can cut some off the J pipe. Several folks have done that.

Nice work. I am in Aus. I picked up some springs from the hardware today so I will give it a go.

Well its all up and running. I had to go back to the stock #70 jet as the #76 was too rich, even on the top needle setting. So I went back to the #70 on the second notch and she is running good. Not much diif in pick up, as I had the guts ripped out of the std pipe and a 3/4" socket in the end, but top spped went from low 40's to high 40's km/h. Not bad.
I did not bother with stuffing around with tunning it, I just chopped off 1/2" from the "J" pipe and left it at that.
I need to make a more positive support bracket for it as it appears to be just swinging in the breeze at to moment.

hey pablo, I have my expansion chamber set up in such a way that i need to remove the welded on L bracket. Any ideas as to the color match for the paint on it. Also, any recommendations on removing it?

 

[Pablo]

Cut/grind it off. Matte Black heat paint - but they vary by brand.

What's the L bracket for, ie.. was designed for? Obviousley not for the SBP mounting method?

As for paint, I'm thinking any good BBQ paint should do.

Mounting method is totally up to the user, so we don't have one mounting method as there are so many bikes out there - universal mount. The bracket is for attaching to the BB back tab as I did on my bike, worked great.

I mounted one up on a Point Beach and thought it looked pretty sweet, much better than the stock pipe. You could easily extend the pipe after the expansion chamber and place the muffler further back if that gets you the look you want.

nice work!
