The Big Brown Goody truck arrived this afternoon. Two boxes for me. The silicone hose set from Economy Cycle and the pipes from Wicked Motorsports.

The L shaped hose is a near perfect fit. I had to trim it slightly.    Thanks John!!

The GPI radiator and big cylinders held almost 1.5 quarts of 50/50.


The Wicked Pipes were extremely well packed and arrived in perfect condition.


The pipes are huge and very well built.

The RH chamber went on without a hitch other than some difficulty figuring out how to get the head pipe with the big o-ring to slide onto the cylinder spigot.  A little two stroke oil helped. It was still rough going but I got it. The RH chamber fit well other than the can being too close to the axle which will be addressed.The cans also have built in o-rings to seal them to the flange.

The LH chamber is another story. It is very close to the LH center stand mounting lug and the side stand and spring. I bent the lug but no joy. Surgery will be required at the House of Haase. The spring is also striking the pipe with the side stand up.

Both cans will need some finaggling as well as they are too close to the axle and will be dealt with at the House of Haase.

I have the same issue with their pipes on my 400, right inline with my axle.

Tim, what are your performance expectations of this machine? Formidable or ferocious?
