Exhausting troubles...
Posted: Thu Sep 29, 2011 11:02 am
Whilst fetteling Thumper (my 500 country) I have discoverd that the rear exhaust section (from under the carb to the silencer) is very rotten and has lots of holes and patches across even older holes....
I know that sebring do not make replacments and finding a good 2nd hand one is a bit like finding chickens teeth or rocking horse poo. So its time to find an exhaust fabricator who can make up a section of stainless steel to go from under the carb to just behind the rear left shock absorber, where I intend to mount either an aftermarket endcan from somthing like a ccm or a ktm big single Or find a secondhand alloy trials silencer from somthing like a Bsa B40, my dad used to have a B40t and I used to think it both looked nice and sounded nice too. If i do that I will Keep the old pipe with a view to getting somthing simmilar made up at a later date...
