Gonna be interesting to see how it turns out though. Crazy amounts of money but hey, why stop now?

For those of you who aren't familiar with what the people at Racefit do, here are a few more pictures.
My exhaust will be somewhat similar to the one seen on this Spencer EVO bike (owned by a British guy).

Got something nice in the mail yesterday. Found these on eBay for cheap. Like new and bolted onto the bike without any mods, so now I got awesome brakes too.
PFM ductile iron discs.
No real way to test them now though as it's below zero most days now and ice all over the roads. Oh well, gives me more to look forward to next season.

Not much going on at the moment. Still waiting for the exhaust to get finished by Racefit in the UK. Should be done sometime next week.
In the meantime, here's two progress pictures of it.

Got the Racefit exhaust today. Wasn't really expecting it since the tracking for the package still said it was outside of Stockholm waiting to be dispatched.
Oh well, I'm not complaining...
Here's a bunch of photos of it.
Tasty.
Aluminium spigots anodized black (fit like a glove in the exhaust ports).
Downpipes. Can't wait to see them all blue and purple once they've seen a bit of use.
Collector and linkpipe. I can't tell you how beautiful the welds are. They are almost better on the inside of the pipes than they are on the outside.
Slip joint for the muffler. Super snug fit. It oozes quality.
Porn welds.
Laser engraved logotype.
Full view.
It's gonna sound throaty. 2½" straight through all the way from the collector.

Your seat continues to be the bold statement in your design. You might have to switch to black tape to match your new tank. That is a different one right? Your old one got dinged in the crash?

Who cares about the new tank?! That exhaust is spectacular!!!!
I can only imagine how stoked you must be. When can we see (and hear) the video if it running?! I never thought that welds could be so sexy. And the brushed finish is gorgeous.
Side note about that tank though (because its black and red and sticks out), is that the same tank as the previous one or a different year. I don't remember the inserts in the knee area being there. Did you fill them before? Will you fill these?
