Holy camoly!!!!!!!!!!!! I never saw that before!!!!!!!!!!:eek: That thing's ready to race!!!!!!!! I bet it's nice when you turn into the wind and you don't have to worry about any exhaust blowing back into your face. Did you have any trouble routing it around the belts??????

Hi Mike!

Bet that sounds pretty mean when you throttle it up. Good job on it. Did you run it outside of the frame, under the foot rests?

Cheese, yep sounds real mean when you throttle her up... And yes I ran two 1" steel pipes from each head back under each foot board and out the back. Mower17, when I ran the pipes out the back I did it for the looks and the sound.. but your right I get no exhaust fumes at all now. ;) No problem with the belts since they all run inside the frame and I ran the pipes on the outside.

Is it a straight pipe or does it still have a muffler?

Straight... all the way.
