Dual Staintunes!!! - jlhalsey_imp - 05-05-2016 Its been awhile since my last post. I have a 2013 Std and have done numerous mods including spoked wheels and DLX exhaust. I am very pleased with the bike but the OEM Honda mufflers are so heavy and worse, sooooo quiet. I had previously run a Staintune before i switched to the DLX exhaust and loved the sound. I checked with Staintune and as i expected no plans for a DLX version and furthermore, they were out of stock on CB 1100 mufflers. I decidied to experiment with my old Staintune and mocked it up on the left side of the bike, rotated 180 degrees. It appeared to basically fit which encouraged me. I spoke with Adam at Staintune and eventually received a new muffler as requested with heat shield nut / tabs and rear bracket loose in the box. With the help of a local shop i am happy to report that after about 5 hours of measuring, bending of brackets and TIG welding, we have a great result. Bike sounds great and pulls noticeably harder. The job was more complex than i expected, the right side Staintune did not fit well, too short. Required an 1 1/2 " tube extension. Old rear bracket cut off and relocated. Polishing where needed also. But very rewarding. RE: Dual Staintunes!!! - Cormanus - 05-05-2016 Nice work, JL. RE: Dual Staintunes!!! - the Ferret - 05-05-2016 WOW, that's amazing. Good job.

Btw is there any problem with getting tires in the future with the spoked wheels? RE: Dual Staintunes!!! - Papa Weeley_imp - 05-05-2016 Wow, VERY cool. And I'll bet that sounds amazing!
