The smoking Orange Project

Finally managed to finish the exhaust line...


Full stainless steel two-into-one-into-two "big bore" system


So... it's now sound check time!




Thank you Emanuele once again for your precious help!

(The Dirt-)One last engrave

This time I used a slightly different technique and cutted out some stickers


Preparing the bath...


Done in two times to have different deep between the numbers and the text


Some baking soda to stop the process


All cleaned up!




Pretty hard to catch it on camera, but it changes a lot depending on the light. Also, in just a few days it will fade out a bit and with time it will age and looks better and better




Thanks Feib amd Emiliano!

Thanks a lot Emanuele.

Just another "B"... only better!

Same design, same bike, same theory with the acid cocktail, but a slightly different procedure




Stayed like this for a couple of hours


Done!



This time it went very deep, but super clean.




Thanks again Feib!

Almost ready to take everything apart on this one too. Hopefully.  If I don't come up with some last minute overcomplicated stupid idea ...
