Jekill & Hyde exhaust system for Scout ( Sixty / Bobber )

Biltwell sissy bar bag

Electronically adjustable exhaust systems specialist Dr . Jekill & Mr . Hyde has a new exhaust system application available for the Indian Scout , Scout Sixty and Indian Scout Bobber . “ A new sound and smart design are the basis of this exhaust system ,” says the company . “ As part of developing a sound adapted to the Scout , our emphasis was on finding a different approach to take to the sound . The two mufflers in the system are identical from the outside , but thanks to their different
mechanisms , they each fulfil a specific role in creating the sound of the Scout . Two distinct voices joining together in one set , where the upper exhaust is the ‘ treble ’ and the lower exhaust the ‘ bass ’. “ The goal was to perfectly match the new exhaust system to the look of the Scout . We therefore decided to develop shorter mufflers than the original ones , so that they blend completely into the design of the motorcycle .”

Feuling M-8 ‘ Reaper ’ Series

Performance specialist Feuling ’ s ‘ Reaper ’ Series camshafts for M-8 applications have wide lobe separations to produce “ very wide power bands ,” says CEO Luke Leatherman . “ Smooth camshaft lobe ramps are easier on valvetrain components as they eliminate excessive valvetrain noise and wear and deliver improved throttle response and easy starting with increased MPG .” The 405 cam is described as the “ workhorse ” of the range , producing a “ wide powerband , increasing torque and HP throughout the entire rpm range when compared to stock ”. A direct bolt-in replacement for Milwaukee-Eight engines , it can be used with stock valve springs , pushrods , lifters and exhaust . Feuling says it will respond well with slip-on mufflers and / or complete exhaust system and a high flow air cleaner , and recommends using mufflers with smaller cores for best lower rpm power and pull . The 465 ‘ Reaper ’ is “ an accelerator , producing solid bottom end performance with substantial gains above 2,800 rpm when compared to stock .” This direct bolt-in replacement for Milwaukee-Eight engines can be used with stock valve springs , pushrods , lifters and

Use of performance valve springs is not required , but may result in a quieter , smoother running valvetrain , and this cam will also respond well with increased bore and / or compression . Interestingly , Feuling also says that “ due to the unstable nature of this four-valve engine design with one rocker arm activating two valve springs , we highly recommend running one-piece pushrods over quick install adjustable rods to maintain maximum cam / valve lift and reduce valve train harmonics and associated hydraulic lifter issues . Naturally , our HP + pushrods are designed to get the job done .”
