Title: The "big picture" Post by John_D on 06/15/09 at 23:47:18 Yesterday I realized that I didn't have any current pics of the bike since I did most of my mods. At least pics that weren't closeups of the mods themselves. So, because I will jump at any excuse I can get to go out and ride, I went and found me a suitable scenic area and snapped a nice "poser shot" of the bike with the new exhaust and highway pegs. Nothing informative here, but like parents with a new baby, I just can't resist showing off my handiwork! ;D http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/redneck72102/Bike%20Pics/IM000286.jpg |

Title: Re: The "big picture" Post by John_D on 06/16/09 at 01:50:52 Yeah, I should've pulled the brass plug sooner. On the plus side, it doesn't seem to have gotten any worse since I changed the muffler, so I guess that means the tuning can't be too far off. :-? Oh, and thanks! :D |

Title: Re: The "big picture" Post by John_D on 06/16/09 at 16:16:37 ;D Thanks! As to what brand the highway pegs are, haven't got a clue. Salvage yard special, with not a single identifying mark on 'em. The mounting plate is just a wee bit off center on the bars, so I had to drill an extra hole to get it all mounted. Better pics here: http://suzukisavage.com/cgi-bin/YaBB.pl?num=1244451089 They're ok, but may eventually slap some different pegs on the ends for comforts' sake. |

Title: Re: The "big picture" Post by BouleTard on 06/16/09 at 20:54:39 Nice! What sort of lower heat shield is that, and did you cut it to match the muffler? |

The heat shield is from the same bike salvage shop I got the muffler and highway pegs from. They have all the stuff the local H-D dealer swaps off their bikes, so I assume it's from a Harley. Has a 1/4 circle cutout near 1 end, looks like the shield off of some 2 into 1 pipes they had. they had one about like it only longer, but this one works just fine. [smiley=thumbsup.gif] Oh, and didn't have to cut it any. Here's the best closeup pic I have of the shield, you can kinda see the cutout I was talking about, to the rear of the shield: http://i626.photobucket.com/albums/tt347/redneck72102/Bike%20Pics/Bike%20Mods/IM000269.jpg |

Cool, I may have to rummage through the salvage yard too and see what they have for a dyna muffler (probably a much shorter shield). I got the muffler from a junkyard and it was well worth the hour or so of digging. |
