Today i went to work on the Enfield end pipe i fitted yesterday to amend the silly lack of noise. There is a baffle plate that has blanked off the straight through gases. :rolleyes: I found an old tyre iron i have and got my Ryobi angle grinder with a flap disc and ground down one end to a point, i then fed it into the pipe then with a hammer punched a hole through the baffle plate. It now sounds much better but i do think the hole needs to be a bit bigger, i will have a go at that tomorrow.:)

It’s fair to say you’re handy with a hammer.

Today i made sure the exhaust jubilee clips where nice and tight after my little ride out yesterday, one of them needed a bit of nipping up. I then went to the garage next to Loomies for fuel then rode up the Alton road to a field entrance. I like to stop there for a drink and something to eat. That cold wind has gone now thank god and out of the wind it's quite nice.:)

If your Jubilee clip screws have slotted heads you could wire-lock them to stop them coming undone. Even better if the heads have wire-locking holes in them.
 
Had the KTM serviced today, it was a bargain at £320.
A chap was there with a CF Moto 800, his service was £300 much to his delight.
He bought it new for £5600 with a 5 year warranty, he was originally from up North and was a very strange fellow!

The KTM is now in the van ready to head to Heysham tomorrow at 1700.
 
What about a slotted head ? They can be wire-locked (y)
They are slotted and i have some wire, that will be my next job then. :) The weather is looking crap here tomorrow so wont be going anywhere but the garage. I have a few other things to do on it.:)
