- April 10, 2015, 16:36:22 PMThe exhaust is BEAUTIFUL! It's similar to what my brother and I fabbed for my '99 800, about a year after it was brand new.
We ended up with an actual '51 Chief front wheel and drum brake, an original front fender, a set of "Hollywood" handlebars, some original Indian hand controls, lights and windshield, and also the old Chum-Me seat and Chieftan saddlebags on it... By the time we were through, it was ALMOST a complete '51 Chief!
Say Nazarene... Are the flex bellows just slipped over your headpipes, or are they a fixed part of the exhaust system?
Also, is the muffler "tunable"?
Congratulations on a BEAUTIFUL scooter!
Cheers,
Slick Andrews

- April 09, 2015, 13:49:11 PMThey do look good, i was going to suggest a custom paint job but I see your already leaning that way.
How much did this set-up wind up costing you total, may I ask?

- April 09, 2015, 10:17:45 AMNazarene: nicely done....those look great. I guess you had no problems with the install. Glad you are happy with the exhaust note after all that. IMO, you described it...louder than stock, but not too much.
Thanks for running it to ground for all of us. Again, IMO, good price for all stainless otherwise custom exhaust that looks right on the machine. I like it!

I still have the stock (black) covers, which I could paint to match the ivory and black I plan for my paintjob.
That way I could have the best of both worlds- thanks for giving me the idea 
Mr. Hanbar, what would you like to see specifically?

- April 08, 2015, 10:34:30 AMAre you going to leave them chrome or paint them to fit the bike is my question. But the bike does look good.

- April 07, 2015, 20:35:37 PMOK Boys, let's try this again-
Again, kudo's to Mr. Singh for my new all-around leather. I think she's a looker.
(But I am slightly prejudiced on that matter)
Next project will be RivCo air horns, and then paint. Custom job to turn the silver and black to Ivory and black. And that's gonna ouch $$$ wise.
PS- I don't think the sound would disappoint anybody- they're just not loud. Throaty, yes, great "note", yes- louder than stock, way yes. But tooth grinding loud-no.
Cheers,
Nazarene

- April 07, 2015, 09:07:35 AMGlad my hard work paid off for somebody. Personally, I think that's worth at least sending me your old Hard Krome pipes as a thank you. Haha.
Unfortunately it doesn't look like I'm going to have the money to order these this year. I had to go the ghetto route and remove a baffle and do a little drilling to my stock setup to hold me over.
Hopefully they'll still be around when I'm ready. I'm definitely excited to see the pictures. If you have a chance, it'd be awesome to have a decent video to judge the sound off of as well.
