Yes , you are definitely a talented engineer and fabricator , I wish my dad was still alive to watch your brilliant videos , he would have loved them , being a draughtsman toolmaker back in the day , then sold machine tools as in press brakes, lathes , milling machines he was saddened when Cnc machines came in , as he thought some skills were lost , but again said they were so accurate and efficient compared to manual labour
Where’s the filler wire, and argon backup gas? The ends should be plugged and purged with argon before welding. Stainless will crystallize and fail. Especially on a vibrating dirt bike.
Not always. I have made quite a few exhausts from stainless steel without back purging and not had much in the way of failures. Comes down to the choice and quality of the steel. I had a turbo manifold crack but reckon it was down to vibration rather than crystallisation of the weld or base metal. Crack was repaired with weld and turbo brace support fitted and it has not failed in a few years of service. Check the grade and source of your metal very carefully! Should come with a copy of the certificate of conformity. Some cheap Chinese metal is cheap for a reason!
@@andrewwilson8317 still though, stainless should always be back purged and in addition to, a larger gas lense should have been used along with aiming the arc into the joint as opposed to along it, all these things can introduce cracking, sometimes you get get away with it though but it isn't ideal 🤷🏼♂️ still a nice job where you can see there has been attention to detail though
Awesome build video @@PaulXchannel! Love the custom parts builds and thought process on designing, creating and assembling. Keep the great content and ideas coming!
that was really cool man, your an inspiration. by the way, I'm glad to see that you wore gloves while handling that fiberglass insulation.., that stuff is murder on bare skin
Your creation of those end caps is awesome. It's mysterious how you had that many forms that would work for this situation. Did you work at a pipe shop before? Did you make all those dies? I wanted to do something very similar but couldn't ever get to the correct tooling.
Nice work I hope you plan on making a few to sell . The time, material, tools, "SKILL" to make your dies has to be made up somewhere .I laugh when I see comments like its just sheet metal, anyone can do it , Spaceship's are just sheet metal, I guess anyone make them too? Well done Mr X.
Beautiful preparation of the parts. But you need a welding course well enough. You weld with way too many Amp. Only 30-40 amp you can make it beautiful
I think you should use a silencer with lots of holes on it much like the center tube you use It slows the exhaust gas and make it quieter and with out the slapping sound
@@PaulXchannel lol..ya guessing development time was a little more than 5 hours! You did an absolutely beautiful job!!! 👍 Was guessing you probably had to make the forming dies you used to shape the metal in the press yourself.
I mechanic too , I think u forget drain hole ( for water or oil) I Make it different like I uses oil instead of fiber sheets on nets Mine are very samaller
So I've seen WHAT you did, and the skill and craftsmanship are second to none, but I'm trying to figure out WHY you did it. Is this just to say you could? That would be a reasonable enough explanation. It's certainly not the easiest or most cost effective way. Still cool though
this is the first time of my life i see a Db-killer on a non-street-legal dirtbike xD
But awesome work ! gg
Thanks.
It is for enduro racing.
P
Be interesting to see how it performs on the dyno compared to the OEM can? Beats it hands down on sound.

I love it how you use a piston as a stand for the silencer
It's gotta feel amazing and satisfying to be able to build something so perfect. I wish I could do that.
Bh
You’ll never do anything great if you dont try
You should be a design engineer at KTM
Hand build, not just buy : i love ! vous êtes vraiment doué et très bien équipés avec un vrai savoir faire multiples
Thanks
Ah oui mdrrr

11:21 - What is a name of this stuff, or where can I buy it? Amazing job.
Thanks .
Almost all is homemade.
@@PaulXchannel Aww...I need this part for my exhaust, oryginal is very expensive :/
It is just sheet metal that has been laser cut. You can do it your self with a grinder and cut off wheel. Then just bend it.
I made a copper hammer like that too 5:07. Along with my copper jawed vise....love those for delicate work.
Are you sure that you are not one of KTM's top secret machinists??? Nice work! :)
Thanks.
that was really cool man, your an inspiration.
by the way, I'm glad to see that you wore gloves while handling that fiberglass insulation.., that stuff is murder on bare skin
Dude you have all tools such as factory nice and more nice thing is idea done perfect work more than ktm can do
Thanks.
It's my hobby.
Your creation of those end caps is awesome. It's mysterious how you had that many forms that would work for this situation. Did you work at a pipe shop before? Did you make all those dies? I wanted to do something very similar but couldn't ever get to the correct tooling.

I turned everything on the lathe.
And heat treated in the plant.
The development took a while.
@@PaulXchannel "The development took a while." there's diy and then theres this.... impressive
At 17:07 u should of used nylock nuts and rubber or something to protect the exhaust from scratching against the metal bit that attaches to the frame
OK
Looks like you build a few of them nice video.
Thanks
Awesome to watch, a true work of art 💯

Thanks for watching
AMAZING
Amazing work my friend, some of the best fabrication I have ever seen! 👍👍
Wow 👏 👌 Paul congratulations amazing exhaust
Wow..you are quite a craftsman...after watching I think it’s motorcycle jewelry.....does it make any more power?
Thanks for watching.
Performance and sound.
Good job bro. That was a good looking and good sounding exhaust
umm, those welds need filler rod. fusion welds crack with heat and vibration on thin steel. other than that looks awesome. well done
O.K.
Thanks
18:17 vs 19:06
18:28 vs 18:53
Did it get sound tested? How much quieter did it make it?
Beautifully engineered
18:05 nice sound if you 2x speed play🤣🤣🤣
Yessss its a v twin now🤣
@@the-rider830 Nah a v twin would not sound like that. But a boxer twin or parallel twin, as they fire every 360 degree.
Great work! How much it cost to make?
Очень простая работа, для человека у которого есть свой завод xD
Но круто, очень круто
Wonderfull but you didn't put 2 silent block between de frame and exhaust fixations ?
Currently without a silent block.
Such a nice job but no back purge when welding stainless?????
Thanks
Beautiful preparation of the parts. But you need a welding course well enough. You weld with way too many Amp. Only 30-40 amp you can make it beautiful
very nice handmade , but the welding on stainles steel,needs a little more attention.
Thanks.
OK
Paul perfeito você. E um artesão de mãos cheias parabéns você. E um bom mecânico adorei esse escape vou fazer um deste sou brasileiro. ..
Do you still use this exhaust in 2021 also
Please if you can make one conical like M4 tipe I want to make one for my future Kawasaki zx63 but no idea
How do you determine the right inlet, the right length, the right curve of the exhaust for the proper bike specification?
На сколько круто у тебя всё получается с металлообработкой, и а сколько всё плохо со сваркой...
Fantastic design and workmanship!
This is awesome. All of your videos are great. You deserve much more attention!!! Anyway where you from?
Thanks
@Paul X Speek Slovakia ?
a CV joint from a front wheel drive car makes a good cone but not like this made for tool!!...WOW...NICE
I think you should use a silencer with lots of holes on it much like the center tube you use
It slows the exhaust gas and make it quieter and with out the slapping sound
Hi. I will show in another video. On another exhaust.
Hi Paul, I'm interested in the exhaust. I own husky 350 my2018, can you make me one? price?
Thank you for your interest.
Unfortunately I am very busy.
Can you give me the measurements of the press fittings so I can make a muffler as well.
Amazing workmanship, very well done 👍
Thanks
Did you do a sound decibel check? Sounds about 92 with baffle.
not I didn't measure it
Great work!! I´ve always been curious to see how these kind of exhausts are made, awesome !
Thanks
Any idea how many hours you put into this build?
Assembly - 5 hours
Development ................. :)
@@PaulXchannel lol..ya guessing development time was a little more than 5 hours! You did an absolutely beautiful job!!! 👍 Was guessing you probably had to make the forming dies you used to shape the metal in the press yourself.
i need to set X1.5, this video in very slow ! However it's a beauty exaust !!!!
Nice job! Hand made slip on
Thanks
Woooooow great work it looks like commercial exhaust that’s beautiful
One tip. Use purging gas when you weld the pipe. It wil look more Nice. But great job anyway.
👍
Great job,we could all do with a buddy like you,😁😁
Awesome build man
Thanks
wow great job. Thanks for the video. Wish i watched this before monkeying on my ts400 exhaust. could of used some of these techniques.
Thanks for watching
Where can i buy the exhaust😍good job👍👍
How long did it take to make ist? Btw. nice work!
Thanks .
ca 8hours
Wow,man,great work,beautiful sound
PAUL X You Done a nice job their pal is that your work place or something has i see the shelving in the reflection
Thanks
it sounds quite nice, a lot like my drz 125 with no muffler lmao
no chance
Did you make a remap for fuelling adjustments now it's an open exhaust? Guessing not .
Of course - the carburetor.
Which number jet?
Air - 45
Main - 185
How much do you want to make one for my 2014 yz250f
Unfortunately I'm busy.
@@PaulXchannel ok. Could you try to contact me when you could? Also could you give me a price? I’d love to have one
@@PaulXchannel thanks
Thats a nice bit of work that I can relate too Cheers
Thanks
How did you know the length of the pipe and the opening of the tip? How or where did you find those dimensions?
These are years of repairs.
Attempts.
Upgrades
Inovations . . . .
Very detail..thanks for sharing...👍👍
12:28 что за материал? Как называется?What kind of material? What is the name of?
Orginal exhaust cotton wool - FMF .
@@PaulXchannel Спасибо)
Would look good made from titanium? Not as expensive as you think and very similar to work.
I currently do not have access to this material.
But it's amazing material.
Check out my new video where I make titanium screws.
Все классно, кроме сварки, с меня лайк.
Ok
Buen video capó saludos de 🇦🇷✊✊
Nice video
Impressionnant savoir faire, merci pour le partage.
14:45 what is the name of the tool?
Pneumatic rivet gun
Awesome job!
1:56 where did you get that material
ordinary shop with steel sheet
How much price ?
I mechanic too ,
I think u forget drain hole ( for water or oil)
I Make it different like I uses oil instead of fiber sheets on nets
Mine are very samaller
Very well done!
Thanks
Keren.
Salaam dari Indonesia.
U r outstanding sir
Thanks
@@PaulXchannel sir I want this part
Two stroke exhaust?
In another video :)
Ready to race ...desde Monterrey nuevoleon México
Well done!!👍
Nothing to not like :) 👍
Nice job!
Brahh, i think u never welded stainless pipe before,
Why dont u use gas cover from the in side ????
great work
Look excellent product
Very nice Job! Grat.
keren bang.mantap
Why stainless and not aluminium?
Which part ?
@@PaulXchannel
The whole thing, save the weight and polished it looks just as good.
all parts are not stainless steel
Very fancy Resonator 🛵
Wow I would love to have a shop remove the Cat from my 2015 KTM 690 can, runs hot :(
Exellent Work
Thanks
Outstanding.
