Didn't take the REX down Pete....not enough room on the trailer. :roll:

But the chick that owned that was pretty cool and told me she owns 2 ZRX 1200's and did own a turbo kwaka many years ago.

I think I'm in love.... love10.gif downtown.gif

Cheers Jake...have you fitted yours yet?

Found it to be a bit quiet for my liking....have ordered a 2inch comp baffle. :kuda:

I think that is exactly what I need for the Kerker on the Black Pearl ! What was the damage for the baffle Dave ?

Join up your local branch of the VJMC Steve - I think there are a couple up your way, one in town and one for the Upper Hunter ? Once you get into the club, all the info about these sorts of shows, wether they are Historic clubs, Jap clubs or patch clubs - is a lot easier to find.

Gotta say Dave you do awesome work, your attention to detail is amazing. :shock:

A couple of questions for you if you dont mind. Did you buy your zorst through these guys as well or just the baffle? If not who did you get the system through? Now you have the 2 inch baffle are you thinking you should have got the 2.5 or is it loud enough without being bloody annoying?

Cheers Kwakked Up.....

The Kerker system came from ebay USA..http://www.ebay.com.au/sch/hobartcycle/ ... ksid=p3692

However he has no listings at the moment. :cry: Cost was 690.00 USD delivered.

And yes the baffle came from http://dynoman.net/exhaust/baffles.html if you were smart you'd be better of to buy both together and save on shipping costs.

The 2inch is it loud enough without being annoying...where as the 2.5 might be to loud,so I think made the right decision. :kuda:
