I like the raw look, but you get a toe in that belt & your day is gonna suck, for weeks.

Dig the exhaust, why not just have it come out straight instead of bending it downwards? Prob what I am going to be doing. Keep it up.

Yep, I like the pipe too; the way it follows the contour of the bike
I would add a small reverse cone megaphone though for better performance than just the pipe.
Of course, that would change the shape/look of this side of the bike a bit.

yeah man, thinking of replacing the baffle with a racing can type, even though it would reduce the i.d it should give it better back pressure!?

RAD! Is the frame painted grey or that just the light?

Just my $.02-

Bend that pipe more aggressively over the back of the side case. I think it would pretty rad to just have a slash cut right at the bottom of engine level

is that a chopped stock rear fender? Hows it hold up to weight ? Looks good all in all.

hey yeah rear fender is stock that iv chopped, double skinned and braced, there was ample clearance it takes the weight well.

the frame i had powder coated gun metal grayish. i had the engine rebored and fitted new piston 1mm over, new crank bearings that was tricky! the exhaust port has been ground bigger and used some custom manifold bracket to hold exhaust on tight to head.
upped the main jet to 152, pilot jet is standard size but with breather holes, did the white spacer mod to tho dont think it likes it much!? will have to take it out and see how it runs.!

hoping to do a chain convertion to final drive soon so that i can venture out. the ratio of the belt drive sucks!
