Weird Cans

Thanks Dave, may try one either side or two on the right. Gonna be a while before I can do the collector mods.

I reckon 2 on one side would look best especially if they were slightly staggered in length with the top pipe longer than the bottom one. How about 2 on each side? When I used to ride chops I had 4 straight through drag pipes which gave out a very unique and sexy sound

Managed to get out for a bimble around the Marsh today. I picked a 1/2 mile straight between bends, put my phone camera at the side of the road, switched on and got on the bike. Dunno how to edit it , so the the bit between 20 secs and 2.05 mins is OK??? Whadya reckon??? Double click on the piccy!

Wes, can you do your magic again , pleeeeeze???

See if this works?

sorry mate missed the post, sounds good there, looked good, to a point

Did my last link work mate, used Direct Link from photobucket?

Yes mate it worked fine

thanks Wes, appreciate your help mate. I normally use IMG code for piccies, should I use Direct Link for videos? IMG works ok on other Forum ?

Yes it seems to be the way, but i don't know why the img code wont work.

Am I the only one wondering what forcing the gas out such a small hole might do for efficiency / power?

Does look smashing though!

The hole is 35mm mate, bigger than the hole in a standard silencer . No signs of any back pressure problems and I can,t afford dyno time for every can I make.

Fair cop
Really does look good I like it a lot.
Liking the idea of a pair at staggered angles too.
Respect is due on the fab skills!
A tip for packing - try acoustafil. Comes as a sheet, wrap once or twice, insert, and it expands to fill the gap. Ideal in all cases but maybe even more useful here where the gap is so small.

Once I,ve modded the linkpipe, I will be using the other half of this one for an adjacent pipe. Thanks for that tip, I,ll buy some .

Looks cool Mega, just fitted a German type seat unit to mine and am thinking an angled slashcut would be the biz, see what happens

If you need any help mate, gimme a shout.

Just done summat radical with my silencer. Went from this;

To this;


Really weird eh ???

But WHY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Have you been slapped with some sort of noise abatement act?

No mate, it,s MOT time and Didn,t wanna push my luck.

Should have spotted that one

The slashcut would make yer ears bleed

Knocked this together today. I had a 60mm tube welded to a washer, 38mm i/d, 73mm o/d. Made the slashcut outta 3" polished stainless tube, 13" long. added a 10" length of 38mm perforated tube and another washer to the end. Just wedged it all together to see what it looked and sounded like. Whadya reckon?

Here's a video . Double click to view and listen.

Few more pix of the 3" diameter by 13" long can with a 35mm bore perforated tube baffle and two rings of Accoustafil packing in. Video to follow.

And a video. double click on piccy

Certainly sounds nice MW the packing makes a hell of a difference.

I take your neighbours are a very understanding lot!

Ive had no problems with watching the video. Looks and sounds great.

However……those slippers in the earlier video need some work, surely! Lol

How does it run with the pipe on any flat spots etc Looks cool gonna do something with mine over the winter.

New 3" can is as good as a standard can mate.

Cool are you making them to order?

Nicely done! That has a great growl to it. one day I'll have the time and space to that.
