I am not a follower so say, although I have dropped in from time to time to see how the project was coming.
As far as the Arlen Rad III, they look nice, but do you think you'll get enough vision through them at riding speeds.

WE WANT TO SEE PAINT PICS!
lol you're at a waiting period in the build, we're at a waiting period in the thread!
fwiw, i had the ness mini ovals, and for how small they were, they were great on the vision end of things as long as they were adjusted properly.
i'd assume the rad3's would be the same roughly. adjust them right and you shouldnt have a problem.

that sucks man, but good thing it's getting done over, and think of it this way...now you don't have to take the pipes off to install your covers.
actually just hearing the word exhaust is making me a little bit ill at the moment.
my bike will be getting dyno'd for the second time in a week tomorrow

pulled heat shields to measure for bct baffles. noticed pipe split down the middle.
brought bike to shop so they could deal with samson and get the work warrantied.
baffles came to my house while bike was in shop.
brought shop baffles, said when new pipe comes in, install these, retune bike.
they installed bct's BEHIND stock baffles, never took stock ones out, tuned bike with 2 baffles in each pipe.
i got bike home, noticed something not right, ripped it all apart, installed the **** right way, now the bike runs pig rich, needs a new map.

I been following your build but the weather has broken in many regions and I been riding a bunch. I am flat broke and have no mod money anyway so I been tryin to stay away from here cuz you guys get my head spinning with ideas that end up costing me money that I dont wanna spend. These ramen noodles dont taste very good anymore
