Slow at work today, so started on my winter mods. Took my Cobra Slip-on and shortened by 11-1/2". I always thought the slip-on hung out the back of bike too far. Now I got it where more of the rear wheel can be seen and also Get rear axle out without removing muffler. She sounded great before, but now she is more of a Stock Car sound.

That looks really cool 11. I like it a lot. I think that might be my preference if I wasn't already running the Cobras.

Ive got pics on my phone I need to download yet of the process.

Looks great. Now you need to upload a sound clip.

11stryker.. How were you able to find the old no 7 covers for your Stryker. Every website I have gone to indicate that they will not fit our bikes.

Very interesting there Bro. Sound clip would be awesome.

Those covers are only made for HD's, so I measured and bought the ones that were the right diameter and machined them to fit.

Hey Patrice & Smoken, I will have my Son help me with a sound clip when we get a chance. Never done that before.

Actually pretty easy to do. I used a Metal Chop saw, Files to clean the sharp metal from cuts. Drill new holes for baffle assy and Chrome tip, Welder to reweld baffle plate to baffle pipe, and I did use a exhaust pipe expander just to slightly tighten in end of baffle to use long bar from inside baffle to knock baffle assy out. I had a picture of this but got lost in the mix. I just used a model brush and some bbq grill paint to touch up end of outer pipe cut.

Nice work. Pretty easy to see how it's accomplished.
**** I miss working in a machine shop..................the working part not so much but the use of the gear for G jobs.

Yeah- the old Glass packs from the 50's, 60's and 70's. They are still available as are Thrush Mufflers!

Awesome 11, I like it too much. Also leaves plenty of room for bags.

Thanks Shane, Now I think the only other mod I want to do is get my custom Old No7 gascap cover chromed over the Winter.

 

[strykenshane]

Yeah right, we're never done modding brother, you'll find something eventually you want to do
