Love the hardtail, looking real good, new bars and tank too. What tank is that?

It's a Sporty tank, fits pretty good.

Niiice work!

I definitely need friends like yours,
cause mine are pretty darn useless Cheesy

...what are you gonna do now with all those extra savage parts?
You should start the 1st official SS.com parts raffle for the needy.

Cool video, please keep us up to date w/your project.

Hahaha yeah thanks! I sold my most the parts I had leftover, still have a few more, lemme know what you need and I could mail it out just pay for the shipping!

Low and dirty... It don't get any better!
It's got some kinda funky decal on the tank though... Will that scrape/ burn off?? LoL

I have something in store for that decal Wink

It's one of the few vids I've seen with loud/open exhaust that seems to give you an idea of just how unholy loud it is. Usually you just get distortion.

The bars are called Lane Splitter 1's from Rockschops.blogspot.com beautiful bars. Thanks, I figure keep the videos short and people will pay more attention rather than dragging it on.

Yeah man I still need to make a baffled/silenced exhaust, its just still too loud hahaa

Currently rewiring the bike and hiding most of it into the fake oil tank, was wondering what this here guy hose goes too

Seems like a vacuum line that maybe went to the old air box?

Fun fun fun

That goes to the wadded up brillo pad looking thing inside the head, where the crank case blows. I havent looked, but I wouldnt be shocked to see it go to the air box.

Re: Here We Go Reply #22 - 06/07/10 at 23:34:43 Maybe run it to a small container for a while & see how much goo it spits. I think it needs to breathe, because IIRC, it is how the crank gets the air surges from the piston running up & down bled off. Maybe drop it down & then bring the end up & stick a small breather on it? Like an intake air filter. Ive seen some danged small ones..

It will breathe a lot when your engine gets hot. Put a small filter on it (AutoZone $9.99) & tie it up out of the way

I removed the screen from the Sporty tank because it was all messed up and replaced it with an inline fuel filter for now. I'm using an SX650 intake pod as well.
