I was just screwing around and switched the center and left pipes... and it actually "almost" worked. :lol:
I'd have to make about 8 cuts and rotate some sections (not including stingers/silencer sections), but it really wouldn't be too bad? There is a ridiculous amount of room to work with.

I LOVE the left side being clean.... Love it Love it Love it.

But the 3 silencers on the right side doesn't do it for me.

So here's the deal. If I do this, It's going to be a little bit "smoke and mirrors" in that I'm going to take TWO DG Ovals (like what I used on the KH)
Image

and modify the bottom one to accept both the left AND center chambers... :twisted:

The right pipe will just dump into a single DG Oval, but at first glance will look like a normal triple from the right side as there will only be 2 silencers...

The main thing keeping me from doing it is I have NO IDEA how these pipes work. If they suck, I'm going to be pissed that I wasted the time. I plan on buying a set of Walms', but I just cannot afford it right now.

hmmmmmmmmmmm..?

You do have a lot of new stuff going on. You can always change things up later.

That's a good reason to have a side stand that leans over-shows the pipes real well. :D

That's a sweet bike.

I like the tight little corner segments combined with the straight sections on the gold bike... Sweet looking pipes!
