    Maybe you can give a ride report between the 2 pipes KW? I always wanted that big pipe down the left side ... It just fits the Huskies look perfectly ... These are the Marilyn Monroes of bikes ...

    Frank was the guy in Pine Bluff, AR that sold me my bike in early\mid 1977 ... He never mentioned the Mikkola angle and I was expecting the big tube on the side .. Bike does look slimmer with the crossover ... The porting was worth it if it was there ...

    I have no complaints with the stock side pipe, the power is wide and easy to use and is plenty fast on the top end. I only got the cross over pipe for a narrower mid section, but when I get it on I will give a ride report.

    Ron Dugan at Malcolm Smith's sold my Dad my bike in early/mid 1977... The new 1977's were on the floor already. Ron did not mention the Mikkola angle either... it was several months to a year later that the service manager (I think his name was Dave) told me the Mikkola story.
