Exhaust, round three
 

soooo yeah Frankenpipe was too loud.

I found a chrome can similar to the blue POS for $50... this one is welded on the bottom instead of riveted, has more threads in the bolt holes, and I was pleased to find the tip/welding/end cap seemed to be better quality too.

This time around I went nuts with the hardware - I think it's got better support at the pipe/can union now. The brackets and spacers you see in the pics are all stuff from the hardware store.
Maybe this one will last more than 1,000 miles....?

looks good, yeah most dont last long do they

Like the kick start on my 2T...
Went through 4 of them on that bike in less than 1 year.
