The following photo shows the front of
the exhausts (which I have not finished). It is a tight squeeze to
get them both in and keep them inside the fairing. I will be
wrapping the exhaust system in a heat resistant material to try to
keep heat away from the carburettor and from myself as I am lying on
top of the exhausts. The exhausts have been made to a set of
drawings from the original konig factory. I am not sure if these
will be the best for the outfit but they are a good starting point.
You can just see the top of the water pump at the bottom of of the
photo as it sits below the exhaust system.

This photo shows the exhausts from
the side view. I still have to make the brackets which support the
exhausts and make some silencers which will fit over the stingers at
the end of the exhausts. All the fabrications are now finished and
just waiting for the engine to get rebuilt ready for fitting. The
last job will be to sort the chain alignment an fit the newly
painted fibreglass. I have a new crank, new pistons, new ignition,
new carburretor ready for the cases. Hopefully 2012 will be the
season that the Konig goes racing
