Hello Melb, BB and Grumpy
That colour seems to capture the Scott Bonnar green I like.
The tank decal is the best job I've seen.
That muffler probably makes it a bit noisy...
Excellent job Melb!

JACK. Jack, do you think the muffler would look better the same orange as the engine? I was a bit undecided on this as there was already lots of orange on the engine.

Hi Melb,
I think Jack was referring to the actual physics of the muffler not the aesthetics of it as it would look silly in orange and only last 3 minutes until the paint burnt off of it. One has to use very high temp paint on exhaust parts and it's rather pricey I might add.
Black is fine.
Cheers,
BB
I live a 24 Hour lifestyle, but every now and again I seem to fall asleep, well at least that's what my wife tells me.

BB Hahaha, yeah, now I think about it, and re-read it you are right. Yeah it's REALLY bloody noisy. Are there any other options for mufflers that bolt straight on?

Hello Melb and BB,
Yeah, BB knows me - it was about the muffler design.
I have this thing about mowers being seen but not heard (too much).
I hope someone here can tells us if the original mufflers are available.
Cheers.

Hi Jack and Melb,
Sadly the original square box type with the internal baffle are no longer available, but there are other aftermarket ones out there that will do the job. In actual fact the original units weren't that quiet either.
Cheers,
