There is one near me with a high-mount Akropovic "scrambler" muffler that sounds decent but looks odd. imho.
... but I didn't like the look of it. Too modern sportbike-ish for the retro lines of the RnineT so I swapped the original also-Akrapović dual outlet pipe back on which I like better. The HP was about 1/3rd the weight but sound-wise it wasn't much different. A little higher pitched, more raspy but that's about all. The dual-tip has a deeper sound and a style that definitely suits the bike better, and at anything other than idle it's shockingly loud for an OEM can. Too loud for the sleepy seaside town I live in anyway.
I agree that the high-mounts do look awkward and ungainly.2005 Suzuki Hayabusa

I nearly forgot how fun this 78cc 4HP beast is.... after sitting in the shed for the last two years unused, it surprisingly started by simply adding some weedwhacker premix gas... I'm still smiling....

Weekend weather here has been absolutely phenomenal lately. Been spending as much time in the mountains as possible. Yesterday, was no exception. I wish I could have gotten a pic of the Fisher I saw running up the dirt road in front of me. It dove in to a culvert. I waited there for about 15 minutes, but he never showed. So no pic of the elusive weasel. I have yet to capture one with my camera. It's only the third Fisher I've seen in my life.
So here's a bunny I saw on last weekend's ride instead
Did come across this freshly fallen tree yesterday. Must have happened just minutes before I came across it, as other vehicles had come from that area only moments before.

(fischer, which I have never heard of, buit, thanks to your link, I see the range is just the eastern portion of the north east.)

Morning ride today.
Went thru this area . .
. . looking for wildlife and what ever comes my way. . . . .
a few days ago in this area, I saw a River Otter or maybe was a Mink eating on a big fish (carp?), a couple weeks ago I saw a Great Blue Heron sucsesfully hunting some rodent-like critters (posted random pic I think).... but today I just rode thru, looking, didnt stop and wait, I think I was more hungry for breakfast than anything else. Ended up in a coffee shop for a while.http://webpages.charter.net/ddvrnr/GS850_1100_Emblems.jpg

Yesterday (Labor Day) I rode south of town to area of a recently revamped golf course, American Dunes.
(I will not try to describe the place, other than will say Jack Nicklas & $185 a round).
I knew was having an NCAA tournament this weekend. (Monday, Tuesday, Wednsday. Covered on Golf Channel, I have been told. I didnt see any evidence of camera where I was that day, other than what looked like antennas and battery packs up in a tree.)
Rode thru nearby residential area, found a place to park along road that wasnt anybodys yard, and was just a few steps to a cart path where I got view of approach and a green. Could watch the shots land on the green (or land short or off into nearby trees), could watch the putting, then could walk a short way to see them tee off on next hole. THen I could return back and see the next shots coming in.
I have little/no experience with ball golf, (but can somewhat compare to disc golf).
THree images have my bike, one may be harder to notice.Last edited by Redman; 09-05-2023, 10:01 PM.http://webpages.charter.net/ddvrnr/GS850_1100_Emblems.jpg
