Fitted the JL3 Curly without any problems.

Used the same jetting as per Ancillotti,and off to the road.

Ancillotti has more bottom power,JL3 goes better at mid to full throttle.

Weather was very hot so I didn't rev it too much.

I'll report back better,in the near future.

Unless I'm missing something here, the tailpipe can only fit one way, with the pipe pointing down and toward the fan side of the scoot. If you turn it to face down and toward the normal exhaust side, the end hits against the main body of the pipe.

You are right.

The only way to change it,I guess,is to drill 3 new holes at where it connects to the pipe,or rework the endcan.
I didn't mind to change it.
I also haven't used any paste as the mechanic that matched the flange to the cylinder,adviced me not to use.

The pipe sounds great,and feels really good.

It has only a little loss in performance at low revs,compared to the Ancillotti,which I also had to match and cut,to remove the abdnormal metals from inside.

I do wonder why no-one does an exhaust or even an exhaust gasket that is big enough. My barrel only has the mildest of porting but both gasket (a so called big bore item) and stub manifold were way to small and had to have around 2mm taken off all the way round to get a smooth gas flow.
