2-1-2 Whats old is new again
« on: July 22, 2008, 08:57:48 PM »

So I was in Paramount HD waiting for the tire to be replaced and am just aimlessly wandering around.  I was looking up at some of the vintage bikes they have on display up high...the one thing that stood out was a Cafe Racer, XLCR....It appears to have a 2-1-2 exhaust!  So that which is old is new again.  I have a pic in my camera but here is one stolen from the web:

No doubt done as a performance measure back then instead of rider heat abatement.

This is the one at Paramount HD that made me think about the 2-1-2...
