Title: Custom cans for S4Rs
Post by: TAftonomos on September 25, 2008, 05:55:51 PM

Just something I'm working on, thought I'd share.

A pair of custom meg's. I've made the baffles, and just need to mount the hangar(s) up, then install baffles and weld on reverse-cone to the tips. Looks a bit long on my bike, but the customers bike is without the tail chop, so it should be perfect.

I should have my left side cover back sat, so I can button the motor back together. Just installed a nichols flywheel, and had the trouble with the genny bolt thing.
Headed to brandsmart tomorrow, prolly come back with a digi vid camera, so video/sound will follow :)

Looks good Taft! [thumbsup]

It kind of reminds me of the ARC stuff.

I like em! Man, the bike would be outrageous like it sits there.

I'm interested to see what you come up with as far as reverse cones and baffles etc. Let us know. And pics of course. [thumbsup] [thumbsup]

It has a XR-750 look to it - other side of the bike though. Some super trapp disks at the ends would look... flat track-ish??? or something - but I think the reverse megaphones will look great! Pics when you are done please :)

Thanks!

I'm finishing up the hanger for it now, and the reverse cones ought to be on soon :) [drink]

I see you have copied my boot prints on the exhaust - any plans to avoid that?

Very impressive work [thumbsup] (but WTF - adding baffles ???)

Sure....keep my feet a bit farther forward :) Thanks btw!

Actually, with my new exhaust, there won't be any problems with the boot print :)

Baffles? YES. I lived in daytona beach for the past 8 years, and listening to annoying harlys running up and down the beach makes me frown on excessive noise.

I'll build whatever someone wants within reason, but an unmuffled 2 cylinder bike sounds horrible in my opinion (not so humble).
