I have been waiting a week without riding my scoot because the brace had broken because I had put the wrong bolts back on when I put a exhaust gasket on it. One bolt was longer than the other . Caused vibration and wasn't secured at all . I had a temp fix on it with a motorcycle muffler but it was way to loud , although looked good ....was a strait pipe with slash cut out. On a Harley it would sound good but on a scoot........no way. Anyway I ordered a replacement muffler from scootparts.nl and it came today . Was heavier than the original . Put it on and started the scoot .....puuuuuuuuurrrrrrrrrrrr. Oh it sounded so good . Went for a quick ride thinking that well it is also quieter than the original maybe it's more restrictive . It wasn't ....aaaannndddd... No vibration at all , smooth as silk all the way from 0-70 kph. It sounded great and had all the power as befor . Went up hills at 60kph downhill around 74-76kph and flats around 70kph . Was awesome . So happy with them and they stayed in touch with me several times during the ordering , shipping , and arrival of it. Going to be ordering some more naraku parts and some chromies too . They have many many replacement stock parts including body panels and stuff . They also ship world wide . Small plug I know sorry admins but I truly am soooooooooooo thrilled with the new muffler ....raining now but going for another ride cheers
