Hi,
I have just got an fmx and it has tail pipes with removable baffles so remove them.
my previous owner of the fmx also removed the air box ( butchered it out ) and also half of the carb inlet rubber pipe and fitted a steel gauge mesh over the carb inlet as some kind of air filter, to replace air box filter, its crude but it revs like a race car now but the air box supports the battery box as it bolts together through the frame and also supports the plastics so they had to be bolted together it the middle.
please be aware that I have not had time to test ride this monster revving machine yet as had new knee in 2 weeks ago, but if sound has anything to do with it then it'll do for me, suppose my main gripe is the battery box is held on with cable ties now, another job he's given me but sounds better than my honda slr 650. ( so far ).....
anyway on your standard exhaust tail pipe you can cut into the end of the can and take baffles out and fit removable s/ steel ones, and add wire wool wrapping to the baffle when having mot, then remove after but don't rivet it in, use self tappers.... Car b jetts can be swapped but will see how it rides next week after mot.... Paul thumper lover, lol

The best way,is to drain a fork leg into a container, and measure the amount. however if you cant do that, start of with about 100ml in each leg, test them out, if to soft, you can always add a little more oil. from memory, a 250ml bottle of fork oil was enough to do both legs on most bikes.
