GS zorst !!!

[Chad]

i was going to fit a new Gforce end can to my GS but after finding this little tresure of a post ive dicided to save the money and modify the standard and can

the benefit of this is it to all intent and purposes is a standard looking can that pc plod cant really give you any greiff over

and its saving me lots of pennys to spend on other bits ive aquired a lazer y piece and will be fitting it all tommorow cant wait to have a proper sounding bike again

Sounds good to me Chad, there's a similar mod for the Triumph, a bit easier though, the end of the can is held on with Allen studs, you remove them, pull the can apart and a bit of shifty work with a drill does the business!

As you pointed out, a lot cheaper! I like cheaper!

I've been thinking of doing something.
As I've got the stock system at the moment I like the stealth factor which I think its fair to be said I didn't have on my AT.
But it would nice to have a slightly fruitier note and liberate some of the power getting used up by the cat so I think I'll go looking for a Y piece and make this mod.

Nice one Chad - love that idea

Youll have some extra pennies to spend on other goodies - if you can sneak them past 'border patrol'

Wish i could have done that with the dommie, but with the standard cans /pipes, all you have to do is spit on them and they start rotting

whoa its louds sounds like an open piped xr650 on full chat

[DaveS]

too loud then in your opinion?

[Chad]

i think so ive got a remus coming so i,ll give a comparison when it gets here

[Chad]

ho ho ho now we are talking i've won a remus revolution on ebay for £156

put it on today and what a difference compared to the adapted can

its got a much deeper tone compared to the adapted can but without sounding obnoxious

take the baffle out and you dont notice much difference just a slightly deeper smoother sound

also its heeps lighter and looks soooooo cool me happy boy

and by feck does it flippin go some now oh and i did add a K+N filter as well

some pics







and you will notice i used the standard clamp that come with the shroud it looks soo much better than just a clamp on there

Thought it might, from his description of what he'd done... And in fact, the modified muffler would still be pretty crap from a flow point of view.

Proper Remus job much better for sure. Looking good Chad, looking good...

[DaveS]

That looks great. Have you got the Y piece on as well now?
I'm seriously considering this but I'm all out of dosh at the moment with all of this damned camping gear!
Will be interesting to hear yours at the weekend.
