They look good :thumbup

What do they sound like?

pikeman · Mar 17, 2011

Interestingly not quite as loud as the ones i took off, but a nice deep rumble and a raspy bark when revved

I knew those blue wheel rims were put on a red and white bike for a reason !!

Pikeman keep an eye the clearance between swing arm and cans my blue flames where ok with just me on but with luggage rubbed a groove on the chain side, had some 10mm washers made up at work which fix it.

Also they get louder the more miles you put on ,I've left the baffles in mine and find them loud enough

Thanks for the heads up zippy

Would look even better in the flesh. Sure u can't make the 27th pikester. Uve even got a thumbs up from gilo on here and he's the worse for dishing out abuse on here. U growing milder with old age fella?

shvlheadwolf · Mar 19, 2011

Ahhhh sean, ever the pragmatist.

I'm getting used tae the bright colour on the cans. Jury's still out.

Are the baffles still in? Mate of mine had blue flame on his blade, which sounded muted with them in, but when out.. oh yes.

pikeman · Mar 19, 2011

They are still in at the moment, i had some unbaffled scorpions on a previous v twin and it was like riding an earthquake !!

pinny · Mar 19, 2011

The bike looks (unsurprisingly) immaculate but I'm not happy abouty the lack of creosote on the shed either Sean

And look at the pipe from the oil tank ffs! Is that the oil pipe to the boiler Pikey lad?

And don't mention the bosted kitchen chair and the rusty hanging basket hanger upper thing.

What can i say, its a character property :dunno The oil tank pipe is a bit special though, the shed has that green protector on thats faded a bit and the chair well any wood is precious in the colder months for burning !!

Get the baffles out Pikey - feel and hear the difference. You know it is a health & safety matter to have them out don't you?
If the blind *******s in their tin cans cant see you, they'll bloody well hear you!!

new cans are on :)
