About 10 years back I had a owner give me a set of the ones made in Australia.
I liked to not get them to fit the bike then setting the carbs was a true pain.
Then he wasn't able to pay the cost so I sold it for him and gave him the difference when I had my money. ..................................lm
Do I understand you correctly, LM, the Overland mufflers made it difficult to set the carbs?

Good to know. I've emailed Overland for a price, but maybe I should reconsider.

What got me the most was none of the mounting holes were near the frame/engine mount holes.
I would hope that has been addressed over these years. ................lm
