    Very nice. Sold my ZRX a year or so ago but remember you from there. Welcome to the forum; love the Cooley rep. Should be fun to watch. I'm running a Metmachex braced swingarm on mine and some of the morris mags you were talking about on the other thread.

            I'll get back to you if I may, I just bought a few and I'm getting tapped on play $. The bike build and car build have me tapped at the moment.

              That is one of the period hand bent Yosh headers. I then had a custom can made for it by Jemco Exhaust here in Houston. It used to look like this:

                You running a baffle ?
                I have a GSXR header on there that just doesn't fit right, I picked up a V&H header I need to refurbish.
                I have an older Yosh can for the it also, had a small mid pipe made.
                HA ha look at that I do custom seats and still have the rat arse seat that was on the bike when I got it. Go figure eh.

                  Yep Jemco made a baffle for it as well. They are big in the two stroke crowd. Ship all over the world. Nice to have them close. He also did custom can/baffle for a Harris exhaust I had come across that had a hole in the can:

                          So I'm assuming you like cafe style bikes by your screen name?

                            update

                            Did a bit more to the bike.
                            Made some brackets to get the gauges mounted to the ZRX top triple.Had to modify the ignition switch to fit the triple.Some headlight brackets to fit the 43mm fork tubes mounted the wheels/tires. Waiting for chain and sprockets, I'm having a 630 sprocket made to fit the ZRX wheel. I need to go with the 630's to get the clearance for the swing-arm. Still going to move the shock mounts forward and finish the seat.

                                Update

                                Almost done with the build I have a few small things to do. Get the mid pipe made for exhaust and some adjustments. Going to check it out the way it is but I'm still going to move the top mounting brackets forward for the shocks
