interesting cooling arrangement. not to mention the barwork exhaust.

wow, does that really have a square exhaust???
blower looks at home in there, but the exhaust and screen are a bit much in my opinion!!

Cool set up!

very tight
bet it would pop a mean wheelie

wow that exhaust is really something....

The setup is quite experimental.

He used square tubes for the exaust collector indeed.

The cooling is based on a stock T4 cooling system.
But he made the housing 1 1/12 inch wider,
wich allows him to install a 1 inch wider cooling fan.

It was installed only a few weeks ago,
but the first test runs are very hopegiving.

And the sound it produces is really awesome 8)

But it still can use some extra finetuning,
because at present, it still gobbles too much fuel, (but improving).

Then we'll have to find out if it's reliable for the next 1000 miles,
we'll know a lot more after the summer season.
