Some things just HAVE to be done and after weeks trying to ignore the fact that the end can I made for the Drouin looked to be perfect for the Café I finally gave in and did the deed.
After a couple of hours with the saw,grinder and welder the transplant was complete.
I think I made the right decision and the Drouin is getting a fatter link pipe and Devil can in compensation.

:laugh: Unfortunately i'm a little bit too far away as i'd want your bike to work off.
I'm pretty sure your welder could come up with something though.
Are you going for the same look as the one on your inspiration bike.

I'm really just aiming to get my current header replicated in stainless, there isn't much pipe after that :evil:

ZED,
just read through this thread after you posted a link in the carb boring thread. and wow!!
Thanks for taking the time to detail the small things in the build of a bike that most would overlook. your carb work is very indepth and helpful in my pursuits of speed on my bike. I will probably ask some dumb questions about the carb work here in the near future. until then, thanks for sharing your work. it is very nice!!! continue on with the wonderful bike build!!!
