just watched your video. and i am impressed. idk about $300 impressed but got to ask, what thickness is hte metal on the exhaust can?/ cause it looks like youve maybe 3" of clearance beterrn it and the ground. a speedbump would damage this. if the metal is fairly thick then this wont be an issue.
Danke

I could buy a stock Ninja 650 exhaust, and it would look better and probably sound better for 1/10th the cost of yours. 



Sorry, just can't justify that kind of money for a square box.   :nono:


Or you could not post in a thread if you aren't going to be constructive.  Jim is always helpful and has a lot of interesting projects like that last twin exhaust he made. 


If you aren't interested in buying, move along. 


Plus, you'd be into a stock ninja exhaust with time on a welder to get the header/collector so it'd be alot more than 1/10.




Good luck Jim :)

Servus could be used as goodbye too right? lol


Servus
i think so. or as a greeting. i amsorry i honestly didnt know it was jim. when i posted earlier. that exhaust DOES look good. and if strong enough to keep shape after a speedbump encouter whomever gets it will like it. ( that video shows it in detail)

regarding servus
"Etymology

The greeting evolved from the commoners' greeting (said to lords) servus humillimus (Domine spectabilis), meaning your humble servant, my noble Lord. No subservience is implied in modern use."
this is goodbye in german

The bottom line is don't post in a public forum, where people are more than welcome to voice their opinions, if you don't want any negative feedback.

I think you need to slow down, Nicky. The point he was trying to make was that it would be cheaper and possibly more cosmetically appealing to put a Ninja exhaust on it. You chose to overreact to his honest opinion. That sir, is on you.



You guys are being completely out of line.  You want a public forum?  Go to yahoo answers. 


This is a bike forum.  Public?  Sure, anyone can sign up.  But who is signing up here mostly.  Bike enthusiasts, owners.  People you are supposed to converse and talk with.


Show a little class.   People act like such knobs on the internet than they normally would in real life. 

This wouldn't even be an issue if we are all standing around together in a parking lot at a bike meet.  Why should we treat each other differently just because we are sitting behind a computer?







Just please both of you answer two questions and I will shut up.



Can you make a similar exhaust for a 1/10th of the price as originally stated, factoring in your time as labor and materials? 


Does the title of this thread in any way suggest asking for an OPINION on different under engine exhaust systems?

Oh hell...I thought it was you who made the exhaust. Somebody else made it. What the f%$k is YOUR problem dude? Shut the hell up already, the man can fight for himself if he wants to...who the hell are you?

Don't come in here riding a horse with stilts for legs. You're starting bullshit and nobody likes people who start up bullshit. Let it f%$king go already.

Please forgive me, Not opining on either side.

Just commenting on the best online bitchfest I've read in a while!

Thank You!

Just remember!  That fighting on the internet is like the special olympics, even if you win, Your still retarded!

Now just agree to disagree, and go about your business!
The bike is a 1992 GS500E, Lowered down and slightly modified for my own personal pleasure. Custom windscreen and rear hugger. Dressed in black with purple accent lights. Running with Vance&Hines slip on and K&N air pods, and a 17t front sprocket. Its about how fast you finish, not how fast u start!

Thats what I'm talking about.  Tough guys behind computer keyboards...



Not once did you answer my question.  Your dumb "Jim can fight his own battles" - is absolute irrelevant to each and every single point I made. 


But hey, lets not let the truth or civility get in the way of how you want to act right? 


I mean after all,  as long as people can post dumb, uneducated, uninformed suggestion of just "building it for a 1/10 of the price" is heard forget anyone else that may take that WRONG information and run with it.


The only argument you have is "who made you sheriff". 

Really?   



I think you guys missed the point of these forums.  Its to be a sounding board and resource for learning about out bikes,  for those who are new and experienced. 


For anyone new reading that thread that is new to bikes, you just fed them the wrong info,  ALL UNDER THE GUISE OF YOUR OPINION.


You know whats a fact?  That you can't build the same box for 1/10th of the PRICE.


THAT IS FACT.   Stop pretending your guys are doing something other than being d!cks about needing to spew your WRONG opinions.


Whether or not you think my conduct is correct is debatable,  what is a fact is that I originally corrected someone and he still claims that just because its his opinion, he is right.

At first I thought you honestly believed you had the "better good" and "civility" in mind.  Now I realize you're just delusional, and love to read your own text.

Just stop.  Numerous others have now joined in and explained to you how a forum works. If you don't like it, then don't read it.

My initial post of "1/10th" may have been a slight exaggeration, but it wasn't intended to be taken literally, as you have.  (Also, I never said you could build the same box for that price, just purchase a pre-existing one)

"Whether or not you think my conduct is correct is debatable,  what is a fact is that I originally corrected someone and he still claims that just because its his opinion, he is right."  Corrected me about what exactly?  The 1/10th, that no one here but you took literally?  Or my right to post on this thread, which obviously angers you?

You've tried to twist my words.  You've tried to bash me.  You've made assumptions about me which no factual basis.  And everytime you've come out looking like a self-righteous tool.  Seriously, just stop.

Here's an illustration for what you're doing, moron...



Shut up already.

Servus,

so offered to exhaust the following:

- 2 mm VA-sheet
- inside a jarring
- Ignition coil must be done
- Exhaustdampig in connection with the carburettor

because here the questions, why is it so expensive, it is a one-off piece.

For those who prefer an inappropriate damper wants to drive a different brand, please.  :flipoff: :flipoff: :flipoff:

There are more pictures tomorrow.
