Been a while.....

But Im still XS-ive.......this is such a great bike......
I put the sidecar on last year, got it dialed in, rode it a lot......love it!....so of course, I took it apart to put a proper paint job on it and a decent fairing.....
Next is dark-siding the rear.....anyone have a good tire recommendation?....
Also an original or four into two exhaust.....this four into one is a bit loud fo my monkey.....
So far.......


Incidentally, not possible without this forum so thanks to all.....

Darkside will be hard on the XS. If you change the rear tire to the Special, I think you may be able to find a 4.5" to 4.75" wide radial in a 16" rim size. Remember, you will need all the spacers and bits from a Special to make it work correctly. You CAN space out the rear disk if you can't get everything with the wheel, but that's a PITA.
What system do you have on now? I've made my own baffles to keep a Kirker down, but still make power.

I thought about using a special wheel...i have a parts bike so maybe thats the way.....i have time, plenty of meat on the current tire...plan on riding alot this year so I figured Id start looking.....
Problem with the exhaust mostly is its on the wrong side.....so I figured if I got a quiet 4 into 2 probably be better....

The only "quiet" 2 into 2 is stock, rare as hens teeth, or one built in Europe that cost about $1,800. I'm cheap, so I would look for a long HD muffler and have a muffler shop install it. OEM HD mufflers are cheap or free at most dealers, as that's the first thing most new owners remove. Have the muffler installed so the end of it is close to the far back of the bike, and you should cut the noise down by 70%. It would probably cost a total of $100 and last for the next 15 to 20 years with a little care.
BTW, I really like the looks of your rig!
