Hi all
Does anyone have view on changes to the firewall on the S1. WHat I mean is specifically:
1) Bolting the firewall to the tubing with either adel clamps or u-clamps in a few places;2) Riveting a few angles to the firewall in a few places to stiffen it3) Putting firewall dampening material on the inside of the firewall.
I have seen and heard of these things being done to prevent rattling/clattering and or reduce engine noise, but they are all additional to the S1 plans, and so I'm not sure if are necessary, or worthwhile.
Appreciate anyone with one or more of the mods on a Pitts, or knowledge/ideas, to let me know what you think.
ThanksStuart
