Streetfighter... did you cut the pipes yet?...

the "Oh ****" made me crack up.. cool stuff..

Hey... I made a big *** lollipop for my exhaust... I use an eye bolt then sandwiched it with washers.. I don't believe you'll need to sandwich it with washers.. the eye bolts should suffice.. I didn't weld it to the exhaust .. I just drilled a hole at the bottom near the end of the pipe.. but perhaps you can install them farther inside the pipe.. here is a pic:

Thanks, Joseph!

I didn't cut it yet. It's hot as FVCK in Texas, as is in FL too, I'm sure. The torque cone/Lollipop baffles looks pretty damn simple. Not TOOOO worried about power, otherwise I wouldn't have an 883

^^^like you said, it's already an 883 right so why rob the low end torque from the bike on top of it? the lollipops will add give a little bit more low end torque and you'll notice it believe me. make the lollipops and slap them in there before you chop and see if you feel a diff.

btw-oh **** buttons are out there. there's a website that makes a bunch of diff. sayings i think. got mine from a woman @ work who had it on her keyboard and left the dept. so i ripped it and replaced the keyboard and thought it was perfect for the bar control area. SF, you can't rock one though until you remove that god awful, hideous "miller lite lime" bottle cap from your head tube bolt and replace it with a real beer (lol). i didn't think anyone actually drank that ****. agreed? lol......

The head bolts should support the pipes once you chop them, but I would keep an eye on them, give them a sung now and then. I have made some lollie pop's and always ended up taking them out since I just love the sound of a ture open pipe.

Put a shiner cap on there and call it good. We have a healthy collection at my house (on the bottles and ready to be taken off!) if you need one!

The Valley is single handedly responsible for supporting the Lime industry.
