Thats why whenever I go riding with the others and I think its going to be spirited type riding I always wear the brown undies.
Good to see your still riding like you were 30 years ago CF, age is a state of mind. Still cant figure out who the old geezer is looking back at me in the mirror every morning.
So I thought I would cut up one of the zorsts that saxon sent as extras, one was quite rotted near the mount bracket and someone had already cut the end off. So I thought i would use it as a donor for my shorty sporty trial. Not everyones cup of tea I know, but thought it would be fun.
Also went and saw one of my old bosses that owns a tube and pipe bending business to see if i could scrounge some stainless bends. Very cool I got some 2" bends and some 1 1/2 " tube too. He's going to keep some more aside for me in exchange for a carton of beer. Gotta love scrounging for stuff.
Here are some pics of the zorst at the very front where the tubes come into the chamber.
You can see how they get the extra length in the shorter headers by running up inside the exhaust. Going to cut the tubes back a little as it wont effect things too much. I can only cut the body before the top mount back so far due to the bit where the side/centre stand rest. Then going to do some baffles inside that bit and put 4 x 2" bends straight out the end facing down and out at a 45 degree angle so as to not transfer too much heat upwards.
Will post some more pics as I go. Also had a phone call from the boys in Bingara yesterday arvo. Spoke to Saxon, Col and Charlie, they were in very high spirits and Col has put his order in for a zorst. And that was before any refreshments had started, they were doing tuning in the carpark of the pub. What a sight that would have been.
