I was half-heartedly browsing and thought I'd take a punt:

thanks guys. some how, after searching the internet for several hours looking for those jets, I coming up with nothing. Thanks for not making me feel to bad about missing something so obvious. I've used the internets for a long time, i promise.

Is anyone else running pod air filters and reverse megaphone exhausts want to give me some jetting advice? I know every bike is a little different.

Reverse-cone megaphones? I'd wager that that bike sounds, err, 'mega'?!

My mate, and almost-namesake, Steve Eddie, had a '69 CD175 with those pups fitted. Sounded better than a mutual friend's Daytona 500!

I haven't fired it up yet, but heard these pipes on a cb360. Low and mean, angry sounding. I live in SUV land, and have found the louder your pipes are, the better you're seen.
