not to worry, safe for work
Rich, the pipes are bafflectomised standard ones. Same procedure as gutting Bonnie silencers, holesaw, etc.
I think I should point out, incase anyone wants to have a bash at touring on a Scram' themselves: It was only possible to cart that much flesh and baggage in a controlled fashion, after fitting Ikon shocks. I found the standard pogo-sticks useless with a passenger.
ps. If anyone wants them, the standard Scrambler shocks are in the shed. send me a pm (uk only please)

Great videos! We just finished a 1700 mile trip to S. Florida on my Scrambler, but the trip wasn't NEARLY as scenic as yours. What a beautiful country.

Great fun!
Sounds like you both have a sense of humour, tho' given the size of the bike and the length of the tour you'd have to have one! 
BTW What happened to "over the sea to Skye." It's now over the bloody bridge!
Don't you find in Scotland the harder the midges bite the better the scotch! And they don't bite harder than in Skye, or taste better than Talisker!
