Also thanks to Lancer a rejet smooth power occasional backfire (which I greatly enjoy). Also I know the header wrap offers no performance gains I just love the look. Thanks all this site helped greatly.

Nobody's opinion matters, if you built it & you like it , ride it & enjoy it.
I have a sticker on my tool box at work that says it all

It says "I don't give a F___ what you think"

Ride and be safe !

Must be pretty f...ing loud. Been on a long ride yet? Take earplugs...
And mind the little one. Young ears damage easy. Cute kid.
Your neighborhood looks like a movie set. In a good way.

You would think that it would be ear splitting but it's really not.  I ride to work everyday and have put about 500 miles on since the exhaust.  I normally have an earplug in one ear to listen to my audio books while I ride (favorite thing to do) and it's not really loud at speed but you can definitely tell when you open it up. The exhaust though small actualy is baffled. Thanks for looking. This winter will be new seat and viking bags.

That's interesting. Mine has a full length (about 16") glass pack muffler. It was so freakin loud that after the first long country ride I ditched the glass pack and built a proper baffle for it to shut it up a bit. It did my head in. Guess everyone has different noise level tolerance.
What kind of seat ya doing?

Your son is out-cooling you with those snazzy pedals... 8-)

He most definitely is lol. As far as the seat goes it'll be one of two ways. If I can get my hands on some FC's it'll be Brown corbin with brown viking bags. If I can't get the controls I'm gonna order a custom springer seat and since I'll be ditching the decals I'll have it say 650 or thumper or something of the like. That or go with the old pin up girl, can't go wrong with that. Also 66 customs I think makes some sweet looking Brown alligator with matching pillion that would match the brown viking bags. If you guys can't tell I'm really set on the brown. I think it has something to do with my grandpa's old indian. Also my son has a power wheels HD I always win when we race.

Also the correlation between the controls and the corbin is due to my height moving forward and down with stock controls would not be good.
