Title: 1st post, been gathering info here 4 awhile
Post by: 5hunrooster on May 26, 2012, 04:30:33 PM
Love this  site, I have shortened my stock silencer, but want the sloped/slanted look of the silencer to match the 93 kx250 rear fender mod that I have done. I just bought a cr500 pro circuit 304 factory sound silencer off of eBay that I'm gona modify.  I'll try 2 post pics when I learn how to.....

That looks like a shortened fmf silencer. Sounds good when he opened it up! Ive never seen anybody start a bike like that.

I'm almost done with the cr500/kx500 hybrid silencer. Here's a pic of how its going to look from the side

haha...I'll try to remember the "chain of events" IF you were to do that in my neighborhood.

1st,There would be alot of evil stares and under breath mumbling :roll:.

2nd,You would get dozens of not so friendly hand gestures and yelling of words telling you what to do with yourself. :-o

3rd.A minimun of 5 cop cars would swarm you,and a minimum of 5 cops would give you a beating that only Rodney King could relate to. :cry:

4th.You're on your way to the hospital in the ambulance,WHILE your bike is being smashed and run over by 5 cop cars...then it's carcus is loaded on the flatbed,leaking out ALL fluids from damage caused by cops....and off to impound. :x

5th.While lying in Intensive Care,you get visited by the Bronze,who issues you a summons for "operating to endanger","loud noise","speeding"...and "unregistered/uninsured"...(if you're not already) :? :x :x :x :x.

6th.Lose a days pay to go to court,only to have the speeding and operating to endanger charges dropped...and have to pay $500 fine for loud noise and unregistered/uninsured.

And last but not least...7th.Go pick up what's left of your bike and pay another $100 to get it outa impound.....then another $1000 to fix it. :x
