Fresh Pics of my bike and little sound bite of my narrowed flowmaster

[RT Performance]

Thanks CJdesgin for the swap of the heel gaurds and rear peg supports.
alot of time and energy spent to get the flowmaster to fit and sound the way i wanted but it is done and staying .
Just need to decide wheather or not to build chin fairing brackets

Nice [up]

But I think chin fairing brackets would definitely be a plus

Likely start fabing those once i find a way to keep the front brace i built from braking i had a hellish vibration at 4600 rpm on the way home noticed it broke my strap agian [confused]
guess i need some kinda rubber mount there have an idea see if i have one tomorow
check the fuel milage on the way home still knocking down 46 with alot idling and fairley hard riding

Clean the wax off that thing.

Lookin good with my tail on.

Oh went home after the bike time and got my swing arm all done. I will put up a thread tomorrow with plenty of pics.

ok i got the chim fairing brackets done word to the wise what ever you think is enough weld triple it for the vibration factor of the v twin

I think it is very close to stock loction and sqaure it took a ton of time and alot extra bracing
(welds on one side broke first try)
But i am happy

much better with the fairing. Let me know if you need more muffler straps only1reds@yahoo.com

don't mount in on or with a rubber, you'll tear your headers or the front mounting point.

i would clean up the welds @ the tips, polish or coat it.

hey rt what kind of flowmaster did you use. i have been thinkin about doin that idea for a while now,or just fabing one out if scratch. its kinda hard find a gutted picture of a flow master online.

I had to add some hose to the front mount thats what kept braking just a piece of hose inside where it goes through the block.

it was a 40 series 3" came off my ex wifes truck
it has 3 v's in it
you would need alot more metal fab equitment to make the rolled edges i removed about 1.5"'s from each side then built end caps.
then when i got all finished being i put 2-2.5 tips on it was way loud.
so i dropped 2.5 washers with 1" holes in each tip and welded them in.
the sound is good and preformance from my but tune after meglog and ecm spy tuning says there is a good improvment.
this took a ton of time to do apprx.
7 hours to narrow and rebuild the muffler
4 hours to build the chin fairing mounts
But to make you bike sound and have a one of a kind look it was time well spent
