That should be a functional balance pipe as part of the factory noise emission compliance effort.

Nice Ironhead style paint job. Overall a decent looking bike. Now, you do know that red and white is Hell's Angel support colors... don't you? Until the locals get to know you, don't be surprised to have some "issues". Your full faced helmet is going to add to the problem, patch holders have taken to wearing them in order to avoid face recognition software programs...

I've still got my Savage because when we moved it was a choice of finish a paint job and wire mod on the Slopoki, or bring the Panhead that needed over $30K worth of parts and work to get it back up to snuff. Panhead went back to the friend I got it from, Savage came back to the farm with us. As did Lisa's VS800 Intruder and my 1963 Honda Scrambler (piece of junk, should have left it behind).

I still would not take any chances. With those colors I sure would not wear  a vest(except the dayglo safety vests)or have ANY kind of patches on a jacket until I was known in the area and vetted by the local council. It only takes ONE time of misunderstanding to be laid out in your Sunday best. And about the "Under 21"plate.....there's a lot of 81 supporters under 21,heck a lot of them are 16 or under so the age don't mean squat!

What I'm sayin is.....just be smart! Ya know.

i'm definitely gonna be careful.
Im sure that once they get to know me they wont even consider it to think that the color of my bike has anything to do with them.
