Re: Exhausts & retro noise
Which could also lower the resale value of the
bike. Not just because it has a funky, non-reversable tone, but because if I
looked in the exhausts and saw that they had been modified with a hammer, I'd
pass on the bike. 'cause I'm doubting the fella measured the airflow before,
then after, and jetted accordingly. Now if you had a spare pair of stock
mufflers...

I got a reply from MikesXS. They said the originals were very loud,
essential straight throughs. So they had a chamber created inside the
muffler to redirect the air and quiet them. SOOOO looks like, unless
that chamber can be removed, these are not going to be the sound you
are looking for.
I was looking at my stock exahaust and was curious. Could a
welder cut the cross over off. Weld plates inplace of the crossover holes, and
then remove some of the baffeling from the stock?
I know it would be a lot of effort. I will find out in the next few
days if it can be done and how much. (IE have a friend who does
this.)

Hi Ruari, I saw you posting about the posh exhaust system, from the
info I have found on Japanese web sites the posh comes as an entire system with a new single wall header pipe which will blue, the cost is about 106,000 yen last I saw. If you want anything from Japan talk to the people at Windbell motorcycles in North Van. Their # is 604-990-9876 e-mail is www.jpgreybike.com. I got my tt100's there and they said they could import most parts from Japan. I live in surrey if you are comming over give me a call at 604-501-1448. By the way my name is Grant, good luck.

There is a B40 BSA on ebay not far from me, I ahven't seen
it, and in truth probably won't be able to as I?have left it too late
methinks, as I dismissed it as I want to be able to ride it on the road and this
looks as if it have never been registered.
?
There is also a Morini, same as yours, but it has a single
2-1 zorst, again going not far from me. He hasn't put how mnay miles down on the
description but he has a picture, which shows it as having done 35k...its up for
500 quid.
Depends on what information you have about it. This is roughly the
procedure, taken from the VMCC handbook who assist members in
registering old machines:
If you do not have the original reg number
you can apply for an age
related number. You would need to fill in an
application form for a
Statement of Search, which you send to the VMCC with
?6 if you are a
member or ?14 if a non-member. When the VMCC return the
Statement of
Search, you take it to the local VLO together with a current
MOT,
evidence of identity & your certificate of insurance. They will
probably then arrange an inspection of the machine.
If you are trying
to retain the original registration the procedure is
slightly different
& involves having the VMCC inspect the machine
rather than the VLO. I'm
not sure how necessary the inspection is
since I am sure that the NACC offer
a similar service but rely on
documents and photos sent to them, with a
rubbing of the frame/engine
number. I think the BSAOC offer a similar
service.
I'm not sure what difference there is if the trials bike has
built
from bits of various bikes (which is what I am hoping to do). You can
get day-time MOTs. If it is pre-74, you can have a bulb-horn and no
lights so you don't need to worry about adding lights etc if it hasn't
already got them.
Have you found one you're wanting to
buy?
