Hello all,
I need to keep this brief but will expand  later...but I am in the front end of a full all out custom (ground up) with a savage engine in the heart of it.

I am looking for suggestions on a high flow exhaust (can the stock can be any more restrictive??) that has the look of the old Conti cans like they used to run on the old Nortons, etc.

Any suggestions and suppliers?

Thanks
Paul

Hi, I used to ride and work on my Nortons back in the 70s and like Thumperclone, I'm not sure what you mean by a "Conti" can. I had Nortons with both the "Scrambler" pipes and the low reverse cones, but they always got replaced with Dunstall pipes.

However, Lancer (well known poster to this forum) has an " Emgo Dunstall Replica Reverse Cone Muffler" on the second page of the "Market Place" section. I think JC Whitney carries the same muffler, and they also carry a "short reverse cone" that might have the look you're after.

No problem, it is just a muffler ... not like you were talking about my wife or grandkids or something.  

For all things Norton contact Mick Hemmings at

For repro bits as worn by high-performance Nortons try

And if  you want a one-off conti-style or indeed any other style then Viking Exhausts in New Zealand supply Colorado Norton Works for their fine Commando rebuilds.  VE's web page seems to be down at the moment.
