Hey JD,
Thanks for the props...I too like the look of being a "stock" upgrade on the muffler. Especially retaining the silver color of the metal. NICE WORK!

I'll have to post up pics of my newly modded 6401 muffler later tonight. I kept the stock theme also.

Stock theme

I agree with the stock looking theme and like the look of painted black better though. But I sure would like to try one of john dolmars race pipes.

Here is my rendition of the stock scoop. IT isn't done, by had to try it out before grinding the welds down and painting.


I'll get better pics up later. I also threw in a pic of my first and only pipe. It was a modified Hodako 50cc dirtbike pipe that is home on my 365 husky. Works good, almost a full second reduction in 12x12 ash over the modded muffler.

Nice Pic!

Sure, send them over. I am kinda like a sponge, I try to suck up everything I can to try to learn. I don't really know the first thing about expansion pipes, it was pure luck that it worked so well. Looks like I need to get my own practice chain on it and see how it runs. That 7900 looks like it runs pretty damn good.

Thanks for the heads up. Thanks for the read BTW. A lot of good info, and that pipe is close on the head pipe and first cone. Might have to do a little work to it and see how it works out. What size rim were you running on that 7900? 9 or 10?

Thanks
Steve
 
Steve that was only a 8 pin. The 7900 is a worksaw-pipe but I like messing around with it. I sold my racing(181&088) 2 years ago,now I wish still had them.
