Fitted with front mudguard

The sound was too loud so fitted a silencer though having problem with sealing to the collector, sounds much better now

The downpipes are made by Mac exhausts, had to import them from the USA, more info here http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/171937951401?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT


Unfortunately the Mac exhaust has a 59mm internal diameter connection to the silencer making a tight seal difficult, though the exhaust slots straight in giving a very uniform look, still trying to seal the two together though, I've just purchased some GunGum exhaust sealer which hopefully will cure the problem, any more ideas about sealing the two together would be gratefull?


The silencer can be purchased here: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/331725367877?_trksid=p2057872.m2749.l2649&ssPageName=STRK%3AMEBIDX%3AIT

Due to the weather here in the UK I've yet to ride it so cannot comment on the carburation, but the engine runs & sounds good

By the way I have just sold the original exhaust which is in very good condition considering it's 35 years old, the buyer only wanted the rear header pipe & may want to sell the front downpipe and the silencers separately. I have yet to send the items to him.

The chrome looks ok, but there is a little rust between the front pipe & the manifold clamp so I'd guess the chrome layer is a bit thin, will let you know how it lasts over the coming months.

Carbs will be the next job, I've heard the Mikuni VM38's are a good upgrade but seem a little difficult to buy these days. I can get some VM36 carbs for reasonable cost but not sure if they are up to the job
