Given the brains adjust the fuel mix - is there any reason you can't play with different "mufflers" on our bikes? Used to be a lot of what we called "resonators" were available for the likes of MG's, Fiats, etc. Their whole purpose was throaty sound. Anyone remember "Cherry Bombs"? Hush Thrush?
It'd be a piece of cake to bolt on a cherry bomb - any practical reason why not?

Nice video and pics Robert. What do you use on the exhaust to keep it clean and shiny. I would like to clean mine, but want to make sure that I don't discolor it with the wrong materials.

Jim.

I've just taken my g&g off my 400 and I'm gonna put it up for sale. Any idea what I should be asking? It's only done about 3000 miles in all weather.

I'm sure you can get $100 for it. Incidentally, PM me, I'll give you that.
