I received my Drummer SS this morning. The workmanship on these mufflers has to be seen to be believed. I've spent the last twenty some years working on Ducatis and have installed some pretty expensive exhaust systems but, in terms of their fit and finish, none are in this class. For motorheads, this is eye candy.
The spoiler brackets are equally well constructed and fit both the bike and spoiler like a glove.
I couldn't be happier. Thanks Kevin!

The Drummer SS does not sound anything like a Jardine - it's a much deeper thump.

Steve, do you know how long the waiting list is for the SS? and can you give me a price est. for the SS with spoiler brackets and core on a stock muffler?


PS, your not looking for any engineers are you? either at Haynes corp or at Drummer?

TQ The SS is $625. The brackets are another $50. Kevin will swap the brackets for a good core. The wait is around a month. It is getting better though as we develop better production methods.

Hell, we've already got one engineer too many already according to Kevin.

We don't need any more engineers, machine operators or any of them people...Mike is making a career with Drummer parts and it's a full time job for him to keep up, but he's doing a great job over there by himself...way to go Mikey!!!!! Mike finished the billet- black anodized front pulley cover for the belt or chain drive on the XB's...will have some pics as soon as I get them in my hands....

Kevin,

Hope this finds you well! What's your schedule looking like? The Uly has needs when you have time. Also, do you have time to re-work a race can off the M2?

Thanks and I'll get by there soon.

Yes, it is becoming a full time job for Norris Performance.
Kevin keeps me busy designing, engineering and manufacturing.
With all his ideas and projects, I may need to hire some help to keep up with machining all this stuff, very soon.
