These are the exhaust hangers, they clamp around the mufflers, a stainless washer between the bends allows the the clamps to be done up tight thus gripping the mufflers securely and preventing the ends of the clamps from bending.

Completed the last job today, fitted the baffles to the mufflers. All that's left to do now is rip the bike apart and repaint, then reassemble. Don't know when though, I like looking at it now it's finished.
I'll be repainting with the same black, but this time applying an iso free two pack clear over the base colour coat on some selected parts: tank, seat, guards and maybe a few other bits.
When resprayed and assembled I'll fit tyres and get the the seat covered, don't trust the upholsterers with the seatpan, that's why the two pack iso free clear on the seatpan before getting it covered. I was going to cover it myself, but the Singer has given up the ghost.
When resprayed and reassembled I park it in the garage and cover it up and go out every now and again, uncover, sit on it, blow through my lips to make some appropriate motor bike noises and dribble down my chin.
Don't know what I'll do after this, maybe an R65, if there's anything left of my elbows.
I'll miss your posts. Superb job.
Daily doses of Cod Liver oil fixed my elbows but maybe you have a different problem, might be worth trying though.
I haven't finished yet. probably more mods to come.
Maybe you could do a video so we can hear what it sounds like. Great job...
Probably the last startup before tearing it apart again for repainting.* Sync was a little out, so I adjusted the idle screws, turning the idle screw a fraction results in a big difference to the manometer.* Happily, the mufflers do an excellent job of quieting the beast.**https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zBXAk8sPwMI
Sounds perfect. Great job. Thank you for that video...
Now that was the sound of music, great job.
Sounds great!! It has been a treat to watch this build. Thank you for sharing your adventure.
