BASSANI TUNED SILENCER
No matter what the engine size or type of expansion chamber your machine is equipped with, Bassani has available a tuned silencer for it. There are two outer body sizes: for stinger sizes from 3/4 in. to 1 3/8 in. and cores of 7/8 in. to 11/4 in. there is the 2-in, body; the 2¼-in. maxi size fits stinger sizes 1½ to 1 3/4 in. with a 1½-in, core. The inner core matches the diameter of the existing stinger, thus giving a tuned, balanced system while dropping the level of exhaust noise. Housing for the silencers is of seamless steel for additional strength. All are equipped with replaceable inner glass packing kits, and a mounting clamp is included. Price is $12, and specify stinger diameter when ordering from Bassani Manufacturing, Dept. CW-3, 111 7 Fountain Way, Anaheim, CA 92806.

STEEN C & STEEN FORK OIL
Steen C, a synthetically compounded engine lubricant, contains no petroleum products, hydrocarbons, tars nor ash, and thus is claimed to minimize friction and heat build-up. Also, bearing surfaces are protected through high capillary action, which permits the lubricant to be stored in the metal's pores. For suspension systems, Steen's has developed Steen Fork Oil. It features the best viscosity over the required temperature range to give good seal compatibility, resist foaming, and withstand severe usage without deterioration. Steen Fork Oil is available in 16-oz. pop-top cans for 95 cents per can, and is used in the same amount as specified by the fork manufacturers. It is available from dealers everywhere. For further information, contact Steen's Inc., Dept. CW-3, 1635 W. Valley Blvd., Alhambra, CA 91803 and request information on item 201-SC. Enclose 25 cents for handling.
