    please help my 185s

    several weeks ago my 185s died on me and when I tried to start it again it backfired and my brother saw a blue flash from the tailpipe. I also heard a high pitched ping. I think I had got the electrical system wet the day before and that might have caused timing problems. It was just a day ago that I had time to asses the problem and deal with a carb float trouble. I got it running again but the exhaust sounded horrible. Something is surely broken inside of it. I will need a new exhaust and would like your input on where to get one. Also, what is the best way to dry the electrical system. Pull the case off and use a hair dryer?

    I miss riding my trike!

    Sorry I missed this question.

    Using a blow dryer will work. Been there done that. lol Most likely though if it fired back up you won't need to worry about it.

    As for finding a replacement exhaust. That depends on what you want to go with. www.denniskirk.com has some exhaust ( or did ), and there are many other companies that have them also. If you want to keep it quiet go with a Cobra quiet series. I don't know what is still available for these machines but I would say there has to be 3-5 different ones to choose from.
    If you want OEM New try www.servicehonda.com if it's available they will be cheapest. How ever it still will be costly.
    Thanks
