Title: Ahhh...it is a thing of beauty!!
Post by: Foxx4Beaver on April 14, 2014, 05:03:38 AM
I just wanna thank Husky333 for taking the time to ship this out to me, and being a very stand up guy!....an absolute pleasure to do business with. Pic doesn't do it any justice...it's much shinier than it looks...and weighs next to nothing.
Thanks Husky!!

Can't wait to get it on! :evil:

looks good to me....hopefully Saturday I can find out how it sounds/acts....even though I got it mostly for cosmetic reasons.
It's 2 1/2" shorter than the brand new Pro Circuit I just swapped it out for...quality is awesome.
Not the best pics...taken with phone.

well I just got a chance to go for a quick rip with this silencer....I love it...it has that very DEEP distinct tone like an "old big bore", you rarely hear these days.
I had to move around some spacers and washers to get the clamps to get a better bite on it...as it wanted to spin/turn a little...but it's all good now.

Send husky333 an e-mail, he's really a cool s**t and very polite.
it was expensive, but I already knew it was gonna be, because I saw one online a couple years ago for about the same price...the total was 184GBP...or $315

I will, but not today, I've already put it away...plus it would be better if I had a GoPro HD3, just idling it sounds like my FMF, but it really sounds sweet when going through the gears :wink:
you'd think I'd have one of those by now with all the money I piss away...couple weeks I'll buy one for sure.

Oh man.... put it on your credit card  :evil:

I would never buy anything for one of my bikes, toys, or for entertainment with a credit card...I keep that for house and truck emergencies only.
If I don't have the cash, then I don't really need whatever it is.
But I am working this coming Saturday at "time and a half", which will cover the cost :-D

My next project...taking this baby apart and re-packin it!...haven't used it in a year!
I got all new hardware for it, and new straps....can't wait to hear the deep tone this thing throws off again.

Fox, would it be possible for you to measure the thickness of the carbon when you repack it. I plan on making a couple of carbon mufflers for my bikes but an not sure how thick to make them. Thanks in advance.
