I wrote a while back about swapping the heavy steel lid on my diesel
for one of the lighter-weight late models. I found one on ebay ($9) and
installed it today... it fit perfectly. I can't tell if it's any louder
or quieter, sounds the same to me. Seems MUCH faster : )

I am considering putting the steel lid on my 90, considering what I've
heard about fires lately. I did have a VW Karmann Ghia burn up in the
70s but that was from a battery fire.

I bought two fire extinguishers today and installed both. Best place I
found to mount the carat extinguisher was horizontally on front of the
drivers seat pedestal. My jump seats and seat belt precludes it from
being mounted a la Westy.
