Adam, I think that I found an exhaust that will fit your bike.


Check out the epic fail burnout at the end. Sorry Sander, I couldn't resist. I'll go back to my corner now.

the pipe has a very nice overall look to it Sander.B)
i like the way u put a little upward sweep to the tail. in my opinion it is that sweep that makes the pipe. I never liked the Yosh's staight out tail.

Space shuttle, beach balls, check... Just got home from the machine shop - 3am. Me and my bud Dustin did a rough bracket on the mill off of the template I drew. Hole centers are good, shape is getting there, caliper needs to come over about 1/16" on the center of the disc and it will be ready for finishing, and then we gotta make the reverse for the left. The second one will be way easier. Cell phone pics only tonite:

I finished most of my wiring last night and finished the last bits tonight. I have completely rewired the bike for the second time - had to put the starter, starter clutch, starter relay, bigger battery etc. on because of my knee.

I swapped out my carbs as well (put the VM29s back on), topped of the oil and put some fuel in her.

Big moment when I hit the starter button - it fired right up!
Great sound from the pipe. I took a crappy cell phone video but have to figure out how to convert (its .3GP and I have a mac) and post it - maybe tomorrow!

Thanks Mark, it's coming along. If I get these brackets done there's just brake lines and some finish work left... Now if my knee would bend another 20 degrees.
Let's try this video thing:
