    Atleast tell us who your shy friend is.

    And I do hope that you have taken permission from him before posting these pics and triplog.

            I don't see a point to be shy [MENTION=33374]Hammer1105[/MENTION] . But do contribute along the way as we all drift alongside this thread to Leh. Some beautiful captures to begin with. Keep'em pouring.

                I was just reading your From noise to music...DIY:Re-pack a Free Flow exhaust post. I had tried this method in RX135 but without a metal cage around the inner pipe, I just had to stuff the glass wool which I got from refrigerator mechanic shop for 30 bucks. I am planning to try your method for my zma.. Just wanted to ask you, can I try it on the stock silencer? cuz I am not using the FFE from joel.

                    What is there to be shy Prashant. I am shocked a bit to learn you are shy. I didn't find you to be shy when I met you. Please tell us you are not shy, but you don't have time to post.

                    And you have a very nice friend who can make a Leh thread on behalf of you.

                      Wow! Thanks Shade…for making a lazy rider (me) write …which I have always found difficult to do, sometimes due to lack of time, sometimes letting the pictures do the talk and always not so good vocabulary
                      I will try my best this time
