Ya, I know the pipe is a odd looking far cry from a typical KX500 "low" pipe. I have the utmost trust in Joe, the guy is a big bore guru with pipes ! I was very clear explaining to Joe that I needed the ability to kick start my kart as a secondary means of starting if we can't sucessfully "bump" start the beast. I just don't want to have come so far in this build, then not be able to start the dam engine !  :x

Haha...something tells me,at this point the "excitement/anticipation/adrenalin" levels will be so high,that I don't think anything is gonna keep you from getting it started :-D

Hi Rich

What about a remote starter like a real flat track bike would have. Think that would work fine, Larry's decomp helps too. :wink:

PS Need any tickets to louden this weekend, I get 2 free when I race there. We are the pre show at 9am sunday.

Joe has my pipe finished. He did a awesome job considering the space limitations, and the fact i needed to be able to use the kickstart if necessary. Here's some more pics :
