Celeste got new exhaust pipes

SKyGazer · 09-13-2007, 07:44 AM

Well, last weekend I went and did the exhaust I wanted.

Celest is a GXP with a stock intake. I had the muffler shop do the following:

Removed the stock muffler. Added a straight-through resinator after the CAT. Then straight pipe to a "Y" then out the original tips.

Here are sound samples. (Not the best unfortunately)

We can get together anytime so you can hear it. I got it done at the muffler shop behind the Victory Motorcycle dealer on US1 and Farmer's Market Road in Ft. Pierce. Done by a gentleman who used to own his own shop. He was very methodical and took his time to get it right. (Three hours total to do the job) and only charged $125.00

I'll PM my telephone number to you and you can give me a call so we can meet.

Here's a picture. It's a cheap (10.00) tripod from Wally world and a bungee cord.

Not only that... a passenger could actually sit there and the view is only partially obstructed.

haha, wow, that's definitely NOT what i was expecting

One little bad thing for me, the sky doesn't have a handle on the center console to bungee cord to.

Looks like i still have to keep looking at those suction cup mounts for like 30 bucks online

Strap it to that impressive feat of engineering... our super strong cup holder.

Hmmm... Sky's don't have an oh sh*t handle? Wonder if the GXP Solstice is quicker?

(just kidding - don't start a rant)
