Greta job on the pipes. Are they galvanized. I would suggest that if they are, don't run it in the garage for a while. Let the heavy metals get cooked off first.

Default Honda "machine gun" exhaust

Man, those are really bad A$$ !! I was trying to figure out something similar to that to do to my bike. By the way, what size/year is your bike?

I would still like more info on the exhaust, if you don't mind. What diameter are the inner pipes, and how do you know what diameter you need? What kind of paint did you use? I suppose a little bigger pipe could be used,
and insert, or make, a baffle?

Ya got my wheels spinning........I really don't like the way my Cobras look or sound, and I love the look you created. I want to be able to hear the exhaust, but don't want to rattle the neighbors windows.

Thanks!
