Anyone ever play around with the flame throwers you can install on vehicle exhaust pipes? Basically, all they do is ignite unburnt fuel with a spark plug in your exhaust pipe....

I've seen some products online that actually inject a bit of fuel into the exhaust for an added effect.

These things are highly illegal by the way.


Anyway, it seem flames are a very common theme on a lot of bikes, maybe some real flames would add to the effect.

 

Back in the day we would attach a spark plug to the tail pipe and rune a wire from the distributer to the top of the plug, add an inline switch and there you go....

 

I remember that. I also remember someone saying that is not the smart thing to do because it allows raw fuel to go through the motor and wash the cylinder walls. I wonder if these kits are made the same way now days.

 

on my buddies chopper we used 2 nitrous fogger nozzles that shoot at a 90 degree. a small purilator eletric fuel pump "t" into the fuelline. then a spark plug i each ex tube hooked to the factory coil.......wow 15' flames are not uncommon...lol

 

A buddy attached a spark plug to the tailpipe and ran a small copper line from a propane canister. Flames shot 30 feet no problem.

 

Boys n toys, gotta love em.

 

By the way R8 that's a clean bike. Me like e

 

How about a 50 cal simulator (Browning 50 Cal machine gun).

easy to make with some pipe, a coil and battery and some kind of timer to fire the device. Cadence is vital to getting the correct feeling of authenticity. The M2 Browning has a distinctive rate of fire.

If you had a 2-into-1 exhaust, and a ghost pipe, you could set the ghost pipe up with this rig to simulate machine gun fire.

kewl.

Heh, didn't Jay Leno melt somebody's car grill with his jet bike?

 

Flames suck, Go Habs Go.
