They got only 9 ... can be slip fitted to the GS with a flange and mid pipe I make. Total cost ... $40 and shipping for flange and mid, $50 and shipping for muffler. Under $110. And excellent quality can to boot. Thick and 100% stainless.
Cool.
Srinath.
they will have more eventually

sooo...are you sending those flanges out? :thumb:
I am yet to start making flanges. I want to be done with those. Running around for the round things and SS pipe and muffler chop etc is pretty frustrating when you dont have a count. My goal is to know how many flanges need making and make exactly that and be done.
And about them getting more ... yes I thought so since august. Yet to see any. I bought them from a different place BTW and they only had the 9 of whihc they had one in a ebay auction and I bought the rest. They never got any more. This stuff is obsolete.
Cool.
Srinath.
Whoo hooo down to 6 ... I dunno why I am cheering. I dont get to buy one of these being broke and unemployed ... but it does mean I dont have to keep making flanges ... so whooo hooo ...
Cool.
Srinath.
Just bought one. Now all I need is a flange, so srinath how much and how long to get on of your special flanges?
I'll start on it next week, send a check and I'll have one for you for sure. I only want to make asmany as people need ... I dont plan on having a bunch lying about after ... cos once they sell out on these ... the flanges are useless ... so I dont want to have money tied up in it.
Cool.
Srinath.
Cool, how much is it and where do you want me to send the check? Also I don't plan on rejetting right now so could you throw in one of those restrictors that can be taken out when I rejet?
Oh crap ... is this good or bad ... I dont know ...
from 9 they went to down to 6 and now there is like 14 ... OK if I get a job I am snagging one of thse for myself ... OK that's good, but that also means I'll be making flanges for ever ... good lord that is bad ...
Cool.
Srinath.
thers's more than 14!!
http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=35596&item=4523503017&rd=1
and there are 9 BRAND NEW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Yikes there's 20 now ... damn I am never going to stop making these flanges am I ... anyway I'll start on it next week, if I run out of round things I'll go try to buy some more ... I might have to go to steel pipe in future.
Cool.
Srinath.
Damn could of waited 1 more day and got a brand new one without any scratches :x Just my luck, oh well at least I went ahead and bought one.
Slow down the beating up of yourself ... the new ones are also scratched up ... doubt they had any at any time that weren't ... I doubt wileyco even makes un scratched ones :lol: :lol: :lol: ...
The new ones must have been ones that people bought and flaked out on paying ... so nothing "new" about them ...
Cool.
Srinath.
prolly getting one tomorrow, btw, srinath you still makin those clip-ons for the 04?
Yes clip on's being made and in stock ... waiting for a good time to buy some steel ... whihc I figure is never comming down in $$$ ... so Guess I gotta buy ... Good thing its only ~ 2 feet of steel ... bad thing that 2 ft costs like $7-9 ...
Cool.
Srinath.
I just ordered one. They are down to eight now. I definitely want a flange. Now, the question is... with, or without restricter plate?
I am thinking of rejetting (Dynojet) and K&N filter. I think i read something negative about the Dynojet on the GS...
Anyone done this? What is your experience?
I think i may be able to get away with just adding a washer?
Also... how loud is this can? I just read something that makes me fearfull that i may not be able to get out of my driveway quitely early in the morning... Is it Sick loud????
Thanks, Jess

Thanks, Jess
Wow man what did you do to that poor dennis Kirk man ... they have 20 now ... dude ... you broke ebay man ... :lol: :lol: :lol:
Oh I replied to your PM ... but that ckoker plate is going to be louder than the plain flange and muffler ... yea I know how is it possible ... but it is ... cos its not a baffle ... its a freaking square metal plate in it ... so loud. They muffler itself is not that loud. I've seen far worse.
Cool.
Srinath.
Is your flange bolt on? Or will I need to have it welded?
I can't tell from this previous thread.
http://www.gstwins.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=14055
Its slip on and clamp to foot peg. No welding needed to install.
Cool.
Srinath.
Well, it looks like I'll need a flange then. Here comes a PM.
Looks like you've got your work cut out for you.
Okay. Wileyco. can from e-bay? Check.
Flange from Srinath? Check.
What jets to use for this set up:
#40 pilots.
125 main.
#4 washer.
Correct?
40/125/1 #4, 3 truns float stock ... if you have paper filter in airbox...
Cool.
Srinath.
OK Great ... now there is over 30 and more than that there was a couple that weren't scratched or dented as per their description ...
On a side note ... I got 3 payments and 6+ that I can make with the material I have ... My goal is to be done with the flanges soon ... looks like it might not happen ... but anyone that's needing a flange please send me $$ cos when the 3 more are sold ... no telling when I'll make more ... cos round things aren't there ... I'll have to find them ...
Cool.
Srinath.
when will you ship out those flanges?
I am on it ... maybe early to mid next week.
Cool.
Srinath,
There was no defect in the can I got. There was what could be considered a scratch, about a 1/4 inch long, on the side that faces the wheel. So, big deal. For $50? I'd say I stole it.
got my pipe friday, not a single scratch, srinath could you send me pm with your address so i can send you a check? thx
Quote from: seshadri_srinathI am on it ... maybe early to mid next week.

Srinath,
dont forget about mine.... :)
Anyone who has one on their GS already, What does it sound like?! let me know. thanks

Srinath,

I wont forget ... however I have serious trouble with names and handles and everyhting ... so if you send me paypal ... I'll send it to the address in the paypal, if check ... I'll send to address on check or the note that is attached to it.
Cool.
Srinath.

It sounds like Vrooooooooooooooooooom. And when it's at idle it's like whoomp whoomp whoomp whoomp whoomp whoomp.whoomp whoomp.
When it's idling in the garage and I stand in my kitchen it sounds like a Huey helicopter is hovering nearby.
I'll work on getting a nice quality sound byte of it posted here.
Sound bite would be cool. . .
Hey, it is a motorcycle. Is should turn some heads? Right?
My neighbors probably already hate me. Screw 'em. It is going to look boss!!!

Do it for tonight!!! :thumb:
just installed mine on my '04.
sounds good. midpipe was a little bit of a hassle to install. it was actually hitting the brake lever and i had to finaggle it a little bit.
this sounds much better than stock.
Its not hitting now right ... The slip fit actually doesn't let it turn unless you have the can on and the bolts loose and you have a long rod inbetween the bolts and use that leverage ... but tight fit is needed else it will leak there ... anyway its not hitting now right ...
Cool.
Srinath.
Minds eye:
Ah, I get it. . . put the can on, very loose, slip fit the mid-pipe. Bolt can to flange, very loose. . .
Slide long rod/lever between can and flange and use bolts to rotate mid-pipe like a clock, sealing the fit of the mid pipe.
Correct?
Fit the can to mid pipe and position it and finnagle it ... now once you're sure the position is right ... Remove the can, knock the flange in with a mallet ... and bolt can back in ... OR wait a sec ... the ones I am making now are going to fit loose ... you position it etc and get it all lined up and make a chalk mark, then remove it and slip on the small piece of pipe I have in it ... and now it will fit tight ... Yes I made a small mod to the design ... the pipe fits loose on the header, but there is a small pipe that fits on the header and takes up the slack ... you'll know when you get it.
Also people many times forget to sand the short piece they are slipping on ... its gotta have some wd 40 and be smoothly sanded ... then the mid pipe will slip on and rotate with a little effort. Anyway ... the new ones should go on easier ... they are larger ID ... just wait and see ...
Cool.
Srinath.
Got my can, can't wait to get my flange :)
It's in perfect condition except for two or three microscopic scrape/scratches wheelside. Such a great value. Can't wait to hear how it sounds.
http://home.earthlink.net/~keith_erwin/images/wileycocan.jpg
Yea Told y'all so ... those guys over describe ... and like they write up dirt spots as scratches and defects ... heck off the shelf at bike stores I have seen worse ... on exhausts that cost like $900+ ... They just describe themselves right out of the sale ...
Cool.
Srinath.
Live, late breaking, flange update?
I'm on it. Muffler shop was busy with a bunch of stretch limo's :? :? :?
I will have to get there tommorow ... they said today they'll get done with those.
Cool.
Srinath.
Yea Just talked to the muffler guy ... first thing tommorow. Then I get my welder to weld up ... hopefully this weekend its done.
Cool.
Srinath.
sorry if this was already covered but which wileyco do i buy? There were listings for a couple of models.
YZF 1000 if available 97-99, or CBR 96-99, and GSXR 96-99 are all Ok ... they are all the same ... :?
Cool.
Srinath.
Wheeeeeewwwww. . . :?
When I bought mine I just ASSUMED it was the 96-99 GSXR. Which is what I bought. So, by dumb luck, I bought the right one.
I got that going for me. . . which is nice.
i'm guessing these will work with the carbon wileyco can's as well, right? how long and how much (accept paypal?) before you can ship... oh, and my bike is a 98 if that makes any difference. thanks.
They should be getting done in under a week ... $40 and shipping. The carbon Wileyco is fine as long as its for one of the GSXR 750 96-99, YZF 1000 97-99 and CBR 900RR 96-99 ... Now whwre did you find carbon fiber ...
Check is fine and so is paypal. I'll Pm you the address and Paypal ID.
Cool.
Srinath.
cool. just pm me the paypal address and i'll send the money as soon as i get a total from you ($40+shipping). i found the cans on ebay.
any news?...are they done yet?
my can will be here friday! :P waiting on that total so i can send the payment , big guy!
i received my can already...was gonna install it this wkend...but :nono: not anymore :(
OK OK I know I am a lazy ass clown ... OK my welder is more like that but you know ... same thing ... I am on it ... Its going to be soon ...
Cool.
Srinath.
soon?...how soon
just opened my wileyco package...and wow...that thing is big!...lol...and quite heavy too...and the 'hole' is straight thru...can't even imagine how loud this is gonna be...
oh...and it is scratched...but much less than expected...
i'm so excited to get this thing installed... :mrgreen:
how would you guys rate your increase in hp/power with the wileyco installed compared to stock? i plan to get one before they sell out and before Srinath runs out of flanges. hehe! i just wanna know what you guys (with it installed) think about this wileyco can. i guess compared to stock and other after market pipes w/ stage1 rejet. i know without a dyno it's impossible to know for sure, so go by the "seat of your pants" feel. thanks!
mondo27
i'd be interested in this info too....I may have a little extra $$ to burn soon....and woudn't mind jumping in on this.....
Did anyone record the exhaust sound w/ this exhaust setup? I know that it was mentioned above, but I was unable to find it after a search.
Chris

i put the pipe on and didnt rejet (restrictor plate) and i noticed a difference in power right away. its not a whole lot (prob cause ihavent rejetted yet) but i can get the front tire off the ground if i bounce on the forks. i'll try and get a sound clip up soon if someone can host if for me!
http://www.gstwins.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=15349
for the sound clips
I don't have speakers on my computer at work. I'll have to Buddha Loves You at my employer about this. . . I guess I'll have to listen at home. :(
I'm not planning on rejetting right away either, but I'm glad to hear that is does add some seat of the pants.
We're all so excited. Once you get that big beautiful can in the mail, along with that ass clown looking hat, and super tight bubble thin t-shirt. . . sleepless nights, boys. Sleepless nights.
i gave the hat to my grandpop and he sports it around his retirement home everyday. lol gotta love it. the shirts are so thin u can see ur nips right through them! they also shrink a size after u wash them. the keychain is cool, the pin is dumb cause i dont know what to do with it. just hope ur can has threaded holes. my first one didnt.
So is it ok to install a can and not rejet. I thought that would make it run too lean... no?
well there is a way around it. i have a wileyco slip on. srinath makes a flange and midpipe so it is possible to fit this can onto the GS. if u ask him to, he can put a restrictor plate on the flange, at no extra cost, so you dont have to rejet. if/when u decide to rejet just knock off the plate with a hammer and bingo!
Damn that sounds like a good deal. I want to do a k&n too so that would be perfect. Can now, K&N and rejet later.
I didn't get a pin, or a key chain. . . :x
But my can holes are threaded, and there was no scratches on it.
BTW, I let my girlfriend sleep in the Wileyco t-shirt. Whow. . . it is thin.
I'll post picks later. :thumb:
How them comin' with those flanges, anyhow?

SWEET!!!! That's what I'm talking about.....not just a bad ass can.....but a lady in a tight t-shirt too!!! Wooo-Hooo!!!
:cheers:
...this post is pointless without PICS!
Then it had better stay pointless.... :roll:
It will. She'd have my head if I did something like that.
Just trying to waste some time, waiting on the flanges. . .
I understand. Waiting is the HARDest thing sometimes.
Hang in there!

i got 2 cans (hadda return the first one) the shirts came XL and L. she would have to be a pretty big girl for it to fit tight!
OK OK I get it ... I better start cranking out the flanges soon or there is going to be big trouble ... OK ... I am waiting on my welder ...
Cool.
Srinath.
Sent you a PM Srinath. I need a total price with shipping from 97080.
Thank you
Anyone interested in a can? I bought one but I think I'm going to explore some other options for exhaust. It's the YZF version still in the box. My girlfiend has dibs on the shirt...
fett

I didn't see a PM ... but say $50 or so with shipping ...
Cool.
Srinath.
My bad ... OK I saw it and replied yesterday ... and forgot ... OK happy now ...
Cool.
Srinath.
whoohoo! i got my wileyco exhaust in the mail today and a stage 1 jet kit from Srinath yesterday. now all i need is a flange.......i know Srinath you've heard enough from us. besides my payment is still making it's way to you. but still.......i can't wait to hear how it sounds in person!!! :) :)
We're all so excited. Once you get that big beautiful can in the mail, along with that ass clown looking hat, and super tight bubble thin t-shirt. . . sleepless nights, boys. Sleepless nights.[/quote] gotta love the bargain bin t shirt :) i actually love the keychain!
Quote from: KerryThen it had better stay pointless.... :roll:
:) you guys are crazy
Quote from: averagei actually love the keychain!
you got a keychain?...damn...i got ripped :lol: :x :mrgreen:
Yea with the bunch I got different boxes had different Crap in it ... Some had stickers, some had pins some had that big clunky key chain ... Yea It was all tacky but hey atleast it was metal instead of plastic painted to look like metal ...
Cool.
Srinath.
yeah i'm gonna sport everything from the box once i get that can on........not! maybe i'll use the key chain. i tried on the hat and it looks goofy on me. i just finished rejetting and no more dead spots!! whoohoo!!! thanks to everyone for making it so easy. i did have to use a reverse bit to get the mains out. i shredded the first one and it's worthless now. BTW, Srinath I just sent you payment thru PayPal for the flange.
The exhaust I got is spotless, no dents and no scratches. My boss is gonna sandblast all the old paint and rust from my current pipe for a case of beer. its gonna be sweet!!! i almost don't want to ride till i get everything done just so i could see the difference. nah!!! you're right, average, sleepless nights. my hands were already shaking just putting in the new jets. :mrgreen:
You had to use a left handed drill to get your mains out ... OK that's never happened to me ... The key is ... Vice ... you need a moindo flat panel vice with a chunk of car tire inserted in the jaws ... Grip it and not slip but at the same time not have metal jaws eating the carb ... Then nothing will stand in your way ... Of course it could have been pre chewed ... so you are SOL ...
Cool.
Srinath.
what is a left hand drill...went to home depot and no one knows what i'm talkign about...
i shoulda said screw extractor instead of reverse bit. the spiral is cut so that instead of drilling in when its turned clockwise(right) it drills in when you turning it counterclockwise (left). they come in different sizes just like drill bits do. they're also tapered. just ask for a screw extractor. but then the guys at home depot should've known what you were talking about. i hate that!!

i meant pilots. :oops:
Quote from: Frostwhat is a left hand drill...went to home depot and no one knows what i'm talkign about...
I use left handed drills ... bought at autozone ... they drill in with the drill running in reverse ... aka the unscrew direction, usually by the time I get 1/2 way in the head of the screw its spinning out ... neat ...
Cool.
