took us roughly 6 months of occasional work. most of the time was spent waiting on the paint. the paint/decals were gonna make the whole deal so we were patient.
like every thing either of us build im sure it will get sold at some point.for now we are gonna ride it occasionally. for me especially i enjoy the build as much if not more than riding.Last edited by Guest; 07-07-2010, 10:36 PM.

its a new V&H header,delkavic mid pipe that we modded via shortening and alterring the bend.
the muffler is a yosh r55 that we called a friend at yosh and told him what size inlet we needed.no idea of actual application its for.

Wow! I liked the earlier pics, but I agree, Eddie ... these do the bike far more justice, hehe!
...Oh, and for the record, I think the cooler lines were exceptionally well done - I especially like the extra attention given to the application of those nice chrome brackets, as well as the choice of color on the lines. They work very well on the bike and look as though they're supposed to be there. The factory would've been hard pressed to do a better job had those been "OEM spec."

im not in love with the cooler line color.i would have prefered just plain black braided hose mostly because the blue hose is a pain to keep clean.
the routing however is how it needs to be.

"its just got a pipe on it". he thought it came this way other than the pipe.

I can definitely appreciate where keeping it clean could be a chore ... but it really looks great (in my opinion)!
