    The end cap metal isnt the best. Very thin and not even sure thats its not some crap blended poo metal. Very low heat required to weld it.

    Yeah mines only 2 valve so 120 might be enough. Its feeling lean in the middle. Thats needle height issues?

    Im tempted to get it dyno tuned but no time before the weekend and would need muffler done before that. Im hoping the new muffler will almost go straight on.

    sound like a needle height issues. the other thing is if it cuts out around the track bend the floats out a bit .on mine they stuck and stoped fuel coming through and makes it alot easyer to get together

    Yes they are very close to the overflow pipe.

    I don't think that qualifies as 'welded' bro.

    Is nasty. I should have been worried when the tardme seller advertised muffler weighs 700grams. I think my braze solder weld weighs the same. I tried sanding the chrome off first and I think I reached the chrome on the inside.

    Like painting a air guitar with invisable paint and Drew not liking the colour.

    I couldn't do any better mind. You might get to point and laugh at my welds on Sunday if I get the bike finished tomorrow. The only thing I can braise is brand new soft drawn copper with a mapgas and new silfos.

    Just put a coue baffles in the one you have. A reducer front and rear is the best way, as you don't need to go so small that it is restrictive like a baffle at just one end.

    Hey filthy diesel rider, my Buell runs a supertrapp and was as loud as Fug when i bought it but i added a solid plate at the end and presto it's wof passing quiet.
    It can't be too hard to knock something like that up?
