Whoa! That looks kind of MotoGP-ish and cool, doesn’t it?

But this is seriously loud. We wanted to tone down the volume, but it’s not working out so easily. Restrict it too much and it won’t rev, open it up and it’s deafening. It’s obvious, but balance is everything. (‘\u03c9’)\u30ce

Here’s how it turned out! (‘\u03c9’)\u30ce
We used a K-Factory Quattro Silencer PT in titanium finish. <\/a>

One spring is missing, so we’re waiting on parts. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
