l need to bring this thread back to the top to get some more info. Has anything more happened with this project? Is that just a general RS5 muffler or is it from a specific application? What can be done to protect all the plastic from the heat? Is there any info on the yellow bike w/ the exhaust? Sorry for all the questions, I've been looking into doing this and have access to the welder and someone w/ the skill to use it. Any help is appreciated.

Thanks for the info.
Is there a reason no one has come out with this system yet? I know theres a lot involved with creating a new tail section, but it seems doable. I thought I read something about Wolf working on one awhile back but couldn't find the info on another site.
With a smaller battery, maybe gel, the battery box could be modified for more room to move the muffler up. What kind of heat shielding would be enough to keep the plastic from melting, though?
Anyone have an extra tail section they want to sell me so I can hack it up? I really want this exhaust.

Thats what I'm thinking. In the pic of the yellow bike you can see a black box that probably has the fuses and shock resiviour (sp?), maybe the battery.



I'll have to pull it apart to be sure but it looks like the fuses can be moved w/o having to cut wires. Everything can be removed and new parts made, so I won't have to cut up anything and it can be put back to stock if neccesary. It will completely eliminate any room under the seat, but it only holds my insurance info anyway. I found heat shielding thats good for up to 2000 degrees, and it wouldn't come near much plastic, aside from the exit, since an aluminum undertail will go in place of the plastic. I found the post on the other site by Jackelmatador, he sold his Triple, so I don't think he's done much more w/ the project.

What's ironic is that I'm remodeling one of my bathrooms too, but I'm not married so that project is going on the back burner.
