I love seeing builds like this.

Are you going to pull the rear pegs? I've removed the pegs themselves, but haven't got around to pulling the mounts off the frame yet.

Stock pipe being ditched for a machine gun 6 inch long, 2 inch dia stainless muzzle with a slash cut over pipe ... still being finessed.
Cool.

I forgot and left it in there, but I found out that past 55 in cross winds or past 70 on a flat road it exibits a bit of headshake that goes away to ~95 with a foot on the rear pegs, and head @ the handlebar drag racing crouch.
Cool.

I got the pictures jumbled ... or 1-2 of em are off a bit.
The bike was not out for more than 2-3 days total. Of course bone head me had a FE I sold off a bike 3 days after getting it running after 15 years of it sitting. Then one evening me and my friend swapped front ends and rear wheels between 2 bikes so I could do a 2000 chopper and a 87 stock instead of the other way round. but after all that considered ... it was done pretty rapidly.
Cool.
Srinath.
