new exh pic

new exh pic

finished putting on my new exhaust.picked up the front section which is a 4-2-1 from a local wrecker not sure what make but it was close to fit,nothing a big rosebud couldent fix.fabricated a midpipe with some mandrel bent elbows and had the works sandblasted.Once the thing was bolted on with the new jardine can it was obvious it was too quiet so i took the muffler apart and fixed that for good,sounds awesome now not too loud with a nice tone.had to get rid of that v+h it was too flashy.I have gained about 2" clearance to boot.right in the middle of installing a new ignition too dyna2000,coils,wires,shift minder and light.cant wait to take her for a rip with the new goodies
 
What front end setup do you have there? I picked up some USD forks that look the same as what you have, but I haven't dug up the wheel and etc yet and could use some input. How is the ride height with those forks? Looking really good!

the forks are off a 2005 gsxr750.as for the ride height it is no problem with the new pipe,with the v+h i had about 4 1/2" to the lowest part of the pipe
 
If that isn't inspiration i don't know what is. Great lookin' bike there!
 
Need some close ups of those pipes. Do you know if they were off of a Suzuki?

I dont really know what they were from and neither did the guy at the wrecker.I do know they were porcelin coated which was a bear to remove even with a bigass aluminum oxide blaster,the port spacing and tube angle was very close and it tucks up very nicely.whatever it came from it,s working now.
 
here,s a side view

Nice pipes. They give the ground clearence of stock pipes. We need to find out what they are cause I want some!

Those pipes are pretty sexy, would make lowering the bike a lot easier than trying to deal with a sidewinder.

The best way for multiple pics is to use a website to host them. I use photobucket but there are many others. Basically you upload your photos first into Photobucket and than you copy them into here using the small yellow icon from the menu bar that appears when you post (looks like a little pic of a mountain and a sun)

First make sure you have both GSR and Photobucket tabs open..

1. Open up a Photobucket account (free)
2. Upload your photos into Photobucket
3. From Photobucket click copy on the photo you select
4. Navigate back to GSR tab
5. Click on the little yellow icon above ( bottom row, 5th one in )
6. Paste the link of your photo into the small box that will pop up.
7. Make sure your cursor is where you want the photo.
8. Press enter
9. Photo should appear in thread.
10. Repeat for multiple photos


Any questions shoot me a PM

I just noticed the headlamp fairing you have on there. Does it look anything like this one off a Duc?
