The Yamaha 600 Thumper ports already have an upward curve and to run them forward and then down you are just increasing the bend curve. It was easier to run them above the engine and then back to dual megaphones and then out to the custom dual aluminum mufflers. The material used for the mufflers by the was from a landing strut piece off a military helicopter. Still has the engraved id tag on it. Built the outlets to match the aluminum housings. Also made the billet kickstart lever from scratch. My plan is to swap out the 1 5/8" mild steel exhaust pipes that are currently wrapped with some 1 3/4" stainless headpipes. I did the first ones as "prototype pieces". I have another pic of the other side I will send in later tonight.

Nice bike swiss. There's a guy on the thumper page [I think] who's building the same chassis/engine combo. Would you be interested in building me a pipe for my TT600? Bruce
