Smileyman's Pipe Dream
So insead of paying my orthopedic bill i splurged on this cabon exhaust. I like it although it is too loud. Figure the bike is 20-25 lbs lighter to boot. Now more melting the rear tire and overheating the shock from exhaust heat either...

Looks good, brother. Though, I do like the way the stock exhaust ties in the bottom of the engine.

I like it naked but if i find a bikini fairing that looks good I am in. That stock exhaust only cleared the rear tire by about 2mm and was heavy as hell. It just had to go.

Looks good. Bit hopeful on weight loss though, my drummer only gave me 11 pounds of weight loss. Gotta love the Vtwin rumble!
