New classic look Hyde pipes fitted earlier today not over loud with the baffles in deeper tone if anything.
Cheers Curly I don't understand why there are duplicates of the last pic I only uploaded it once honest Admin I did try to delete but to no avail
Cheers Dave A very easy job had to drill the hole a taj for the mute screws to fit but other than that very pleased these are modified as the mounting bracket on the pipe to footpeg is now fixed welded and finished in the same chrome as they had some issues with earlier ones not fitting clearing swinging arm HBS 505 if anyone needs part number
Very nice! Quick two questions: 1) Do they cover the back wheel nut? The originals did, which means that if you want to torque them properly, you need to take them off; 2) Are they compatible with a centre stand? Lovely bike, by the way, I like your discreet but effective mods.
Hi and thanks for the positive comments the rear axle nuts are easily accessible with these on removal not required to torque and this kit is compatible with centre stand as they come with a bracket and a bolt to fit onto the left pipe comes with instructions all that's needed is you fit the original rubber bung into this bracket easy job
Very nice Nick. Much classier look than the megaphone style. Bikes looking great. Loving those 412s. JJ
Cheers Jj, As you probably guessed I like to play around with stuff looked at arrow but was not sure about the looks one thing that put me off was the arrow decal on the end can the 412 Progressive shocks I managed to get off Evilbay for a very good price love the megaphone look modern classic style.
Hi Matthew, yes they do them in black heres the link https://normanhyde.co.uk/2009-classic-silencer-pair-3834.html Not overloud without the baffle until you wind the throttle open then it done me head in so baffle in for me nice deep tone and louder than the tors I had on there but not over the top like
You used the original down pipes, right? Also, if at any stage you can find a bit of time, could I ask you for a side photo, perfectly aligned with the bike (i.e. not at an angle)? I really am tempted by these, but want to be certain that my torque wrench will reach the rear nut (I've a bit of a monstrous wrench). Much appreciated!
Sure thing im putting some rear footpeg deletes on later today I will mock something up so it shows the access to the rear axle nut the front headers are stock not changed if you have the T100 the pies are different ie the angle where the slip on attaches they also do a pipe to fit this and in black or chrome the hangar bracket on the pipe is now fixed welded as they had some issues with the earlier ones not clearing the swing arm these ones have plenty of clearance.
Thanks! I did find the T100 ones, but from their pictures, they sort of look like they are still blocking the rear axle nut: https://normanhyde.co.uk/bonneville...k-available-jan-2015-toga-by-norman-hyde.html It's not a huge deal, but it's certainly annoying. They also seem to have much less of an upwards angle than yours do.
Hi I reckon if yours is a T 100 then it may not clear the rear axle nut however its only a five minuite job to slide the pipe off to torque that rear axle up adjust chain or clean rear wheel I regularly remove the pipes to do these things heres a few side on shots paddock stand also clears these pipes too
No worries happy to help there Ive had many different pipes over the years on different bikes but I have to say for looks and sound with a perfect finish these are the best they do come with a bit of a price tag I agree BTW Im not a salesman for Mr Hyde
