This is also a project from quite a while back.
\nI wonder how many people out there have had Asakawa Speed’s Asakawa hand-bend a muffler for them\u2026
\nThis is one of those rare few.
\nThe exhaust pipe is titanium hand-bent with a slip-fit connection, I think around 42.7 millimeters.
\nThe tail section is about 50.8 millimeters.
\nWhat’s interesting is the silencer.
\nA 100-millimeter aluminum shell bent into a banana shape.
\nThe inside is bent too, of course \u2606
\nAnd the aggressive tail pipe \u2606
\nPushed as far inward as possible,
\nThere’s almost no straight section all the way to where the silencer connects, so it’s an exceptionally beautiful tail.
\nHand-bending and pushing it in like that is a one-shot deal, so it must be pretty difficult.
\nFor a Katana that’s been ridden for nearly 25 years, I think it’s remarkable.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
