Twin exhausts on a wee??
« on: September 12, 2010, 07:39:15 »
Has anyone ever heard of /seen / done a twin exhaust conversion for the wee, I'm more than happy with my new bike but can't help comparing the looks with the vee and keep thinking the wee looks out of balance, has anyone fitted a fake can on the left just for the looks, I guess with a few mods it could become some sort of additional storage. Am I alone here thinking along these lines?

I've seen a "fake" one fitted to a wee and used as a tool tube,but not seen a proper dual system.

That looks alright doesn't it, I guess having racks/panniers makes the locating simpler and it's easier to disguise the fake pipe, I feel a project coming on...............
cheers for that

I seem to remember there being a twin silencer system made for the Wee - somewhere in Euroland I think..... :shrug:

I am happy to be proved wrong though...
