200 HP Chase Begins .... Now Completed 14 Months In. WooHoo !!

[Idaho Red Rocket 3]

Today my new chrome 3-1-2 system from Paul Bryant of Viking Exhaust has arrived. Thank You Paul. I am the proud owner of the first 1 3/4" system Paul has made for the Rocket III. Thanks to Neville Lush for encouraging Paul to make this for me. Paul said he did it because I bullied him into it. LOL. He worked hard to make this and had to have a bunch of new tooling made to accomplish this task. I was patient and told Paul to take the time he needs to get it right. And man is it right.

Well 9 months later here it is. Take a look at some of the pictures I took with my crappy cell phone as I unpacked it this afternoon.

I think Paul will get over being bullied .

Looks mint, looking forward to seeing it on your bike, would be good to have a video of the sound too.

I want to take a lot of pictures and make some videos too. My buddy Jerry is really good at making YouTube videos so I'm going to ask him to help me with that. I definitely plan on a before/after sound clip. I also have to tear down the engine to install my 200HP kit I purchased from Neville Lush Racing. Cams, Pistons, Valve Springs, Retainers. I also have a Triumph up-date kit I'll be installing some of. I think a new clutch fibers/steel/springs are going to be needed.

That system looks real sharp. Love the chrome work. I noticed that there are provisions made to attach heat shields. Does Paul supply these or will you be making your own. Also, there is no O2 bung in the typical place. Did you have this removed or relocated? Glad you'll be keeping us up to date with pics. Keep em coming.

Thanks to Paul for such great work. I asked Paul to add the stubs so I could add heat shields. Paul does not make heat shields, so I have to source them or have them made. Paul put the O2 bung on the inside facing into the bike.

That Lush Racing 200 kit will hit 215 with filters and pump gas so do it right Bill. Im watching you with Jerry doing the video this will be a great thread.

This Neville Lush kit with Paul´s exhaust will easily make the 200 plus some bonus.
My experience is that the 3in2 systems are better than the 3in1 at higher revs.

I'm sure that the answer is obvious, but I'd like to hear why you wanted 1 3/4"
