Knew id seen an underseat system on another NC somewhere, got any closer pics kev?

I think exhaust length is more important on 2 strokes, i dont think its that important on a 4 stroke although please correct me if im wrong.

I'll have to try digging some out and scanning them into my computer.

It was from before the invention of digital cameras (well in Cornwall atleast!)

I wish I had taked more but I'm sure I have a few somewhere.

No rush kev, im just trying to work out the best way to do the underseat exhaust.

My parents live in cornwall, the pace down there is so slow i can only handle a couple of days at a time before the stress levels top out, nice place tho.

I got them made up at a place down in Cornwall - out near Helston.

The place was/is called West Kernow Engineering or something like that. they were mainly into drag racing.
I took the cans which I bought in kit form from a&r racing and an old system which was rotten at the joints to they guy there. He had the bike too.
He just said to me," put the cans where you want them and I'll make the pipe work fit!!"
I told him he could use the old system to cut up and use too, which he did for the rear headers and just made the front ones join together then loop round in the space where the original ones head down behind your right foot.

The end result is the pic I posted up earlier. sounded good. and the bike was featured in Streetfighters Extreme edition 2004. I ended up selling it to a guy called Lars who came over from Denmark especially to buy it.

You did a nice job on that NC kev, shame it went aboard.

Jas, the red 35 2nd pic from the bottom looks well done. The MV style doesnt look right, crazy euro nutters :grin: I recognise that seat unit tho, nick gravley if im not mistaken. Same as the one i had on my black track bike, Simon Edg65 still has one i think.

I've been throwing around the idea of going underseat ever since I tyga-ed my NC35. Any idea of the approx cost of a conversion like that?

Tony, do you know who Dave G is...? He is site admin here. That pic is from 2004...but I am not 100% sure if this custom build MV tail/system is of his bike :roll: Maybe from other member of the early early 400gb forum. It may be of Nick Gravleys hands...again I am not sure on this. I do believe the one you had on your black track bike is different. :grin:
