Looking for best sounding exhaust

I have a friend that's into old Indians, and Harley's.

He's a machinist on a cargo ship, and has a killer home shop. His daily rider "not bar hopper" bike is a 1947 Indian. He has a cargo container stuffed full of old bikes. Has a Matchless Indian that is one of 3 made. One is in a museum somewhere, one burned up in a fire and he owns the last one.

This is his every day bike. He's a freak about the condition they run...not so much on how they look.

Those are way too cool!
 
Really like the old bikes...see if you can find out the model of the indian/matchless. Indian imported cz, ajs,enfields, blahblah and rebadged em. Pretty cool stuff out there.

This is what he told me about the Matchless...The Brits bought the Springfield plant 1960-63. They built a AJS, Norton, and Matchless as projects with 74" Chief motors.

The Norton was burned up in a fire, Domi Racers kept the AJS in their showroom, and he has the Matchless.
 
What a rolling frame and multitudes of alcohol and a machine shop will get you.

Crazy thing gets a lot of looks when you pull in any of the Daytona biker bars. Top speed is around 65 MPH thru a Harley 5 speed trans.

Build stage.

Is that an oil injected 2 stroke? Looks like an oil tank on the side
