Bike: DUCATI 600ss

D.I.Y. race can

I like every one else with a motorbike doesnt want it to sound like an electric blender, I couldnt afford a termi or similar sort of pipe ( be worth more than my bike), I know you can buy a viper can and a link pipe but the link pipe fixings make it look a bit rough, besides which that still would cost £150, The easiest simplest and cheapest way was to buy a decent race can that came off a jap bike and modify it to fit, Because of the sheer amount of them around picking up a cheap second hand can is easier, The cheapest I have seen a can go for a 600ss is £85 second hand, I bought a second hand carbon micron can for £30,

To make it fit all I did was to carefully hack saw the part i needed off the standard can and drill holes in to suit, The point being that you can pick up a standard can cheaper than you can buy a link pipe, It now has that proper sound to it but isnt over loud, Could be an easy fix as well if some one has a small misadventure and damages there exhausts,

Literally took me an hour or so with a hacksaw, drill and a file,
