Title: A vote.....Norton Peashooter or Universal....XBR
Post by: guest1376 on February 05, 2012, 07:00:52 PM
In a quandary...just bought stainless downpipes, bloke that supplies them (OS Pipes) recommends the norton peashooter silencer....apparently fit straight on.

Was going to go for a Universal silencer......any comments appreciated. Cheers in advance.

One more thing, having never done this before, I've read an article about someone having to have the carb re-jet after fitting the peashooter. Was just hoping for a straightforward change over if I could.

I would go for the peashooters, No matter what universal silencer you fit you will probably have to rejet the carb

Do these down pipes give a two into two or two into one set up?

Tried to get a price but the fella I spoke to didn't know. If you don't mind, how much have they charged you?
