Pea shooter height

Forums

Hi all

Can someone tell me the height off the ground to the end of the pea shooter silencer under side

As both of mine are different.

1972 fastback

Thanks

Pete

There are so many variables here - tyre type and size, suspension compression.

I don't think that I've ever seen a Commando with two silencers at the same height, and certainly not equidistant from the centre line. No-one ever notices though as they flail around so much at tickover that it's impossible to see.

Any adjustment of Commando downpipes and silencers is a series of compromises. There are a number of places that they have to clear and they differ on each side. Rotating the downpipe to achieve this means that the tilted up ends alter in height.

At least you don't have balance pipes on the 750.
