Smoke Stack I have to ask you to stop posting pics of your bike, it is too awesome and it hurts my s40's feelings everytime you pop it up here.

Should I go with 1" or 2" 15' titanium wrap? I want the original heat shield to fit back on and I'm using a Screaming Eagle muffler..

okay...who wants to look around and try to get a group buy thing going for some headers? If we can buy say..10 from a tubing company that does mandrel bends we could get some pretty cheap i'd imagine. Buyers would have to make up a flange but thats not much of an issue. Maybe Verslagen or EdL would sell batches?

What are you talking about, header pipe to muffler adapters? If so, you can get those at a muffler shop custom made in about 2 minutes.

Thanks!  I'm gonna get on the muffler (and probably the rest of the engine) come winter, I just haven't decided which way I'm gonna go yet.

No...im talking about a group buy of mandrel bent tube/pipe that doesnt have the measly stock ID of 1.3". A group buy a of custom made head pipes...with or without flanges to attach to the head. Without would be much easier to make happen but would require buyers to make their own. With...may be hard finding an outfit interested enough to bother. Or you can shell out the $500 for a raask if you've got it, but i personally am opposed to spending $500 on a raask or $300 or so dollars you'd get charged for a local shop to do a one off.....motolanna.com has nice pipes for the sr500 but it they wont work on our bike without being cut up and extended.

and you dont need to bother with the muffler shop for muffler adapters, just cut up a soup or soda can and make a shim.
