    Thanx! Makes a big difference than the smooth one on my new Husky.

    This cap suits the fancy 83.

    Home made silencer baffle....

    Think smaller holes will make it little louder.

    the holes are probably bigger to avoid fouling/plugging?

    Yeah right! Hmmmm think someone used me welder, cause me tank is empty! Hmmmmm wonder who that was?

    So only could tape the end on but end end cap is on and baffle inside.

    Still have to make the brackets for it yet.

    Thanx guys! Huskenstein is just getting started.

    Gets lil frustrating cause I want to do this and that, then I need this bit and this tool holder.

    But I have some neat ideas in my head, it's just trying to get them made up.

    Think smaller holes will make it little louder.

    On my Yamaha RD400 2 stroke street bikes we would pull the baffles out drill the holes bigger & it would make it a little louder , but improved performance .

    You either ran out of gas or forgot to close the valve on the bottle and it wept out like it did for me. One of those senior moments that happen when you are in a hurry:)

    You ever have one of them nights where a darn thing keeps happening?

    So go get my tank filled and barely made it before they closed.

    Get home and start to weld and I have no gas! So screwed around with regulator, taking it apart.

    Cleaned it and have gas but no gauge. So had to guess! Weld for while and not enough gas. Weld while and still no gas!

    Then work kept calling me! Start welding and looks like my gas pressure guess is working. Then work calling me! Then momma calls me for dinner! Like sheet! How guy to get anything done
    Well least got this part welded up but didn't get the brackets on!

    Think better not leave it on end of pipe! Probably fall off and nail me in head next!
