lookin good the only thing I am not sure of is the long expance of pipe going up behind the foot peg, It loks a bit long and straight and chrome'y, saying that if I had the cash I would do it, DD.

This is true. I'd have liked a new front pipe/manifold so it could all be incorperated more smoothly, either that, or the 90 degree bend to be closer to the joint such that the vertical pipe is ~80mm nearer to the front of the bike.

Thing is, I just don't think there's enough space for it all, especially bearing in mind it gets very hot. It's a tight squeeze getting it all under there as it is.

I'm hoping to get some on-board footage this coming weekend... The sound is simply awesome.

loco, Looks really good. One suggestion tho' (everyone's a critic, right?) black out the pillion bracket mounts.

Fantastic shots of the bike, the one with the tank and sun setting just calls out to me. Beautiful region. Thanks for the post.

Cheers, everyone. This thing really is my dream bike, so I've splashed out a fair amount on it. I can't imagine owning any other bike, this thing just kicks butt on looks, sound, comfort and performance. The missus is truly jealous of my love for it!

Yeah it's on the list of things to do, along with the indicator mounts.

Also, there's a small piece of bodywork that I need to modify which will then fit around the number plate light and rear light, which would tidy up the back that bit more.

I was thinking of maybe getting the exhaust pipework powder-coated in matt black to match the frame. See what it costs, and if it's possible, etc. What do you guys think?

The black idea is where i would go, maybe that or a thin carbon cover? course that is only my opinion and should not effect your choice at all. :-D
