Getting close to being done for a while. Kind of. Still waiting on my pipe to come in, this one is for my dads bike just used it to check a couple things. Installed the Bare Knuckle Choppers Big Boy air cleaner with catch can.

Still need the wheels, rotors and sprocket to be made, ordered the Kraus Moto rear radial caliper mount and Brembo caliper to match the fronts. I’ll install all of that at the same time. Tins should be going to paint next week.

Hopefully be all together late this month. Fingers crossed!!

Nice finish on the pipes. They'll look sweet once they get burned in. Love me some bare stainless headers. Don't forget to degrease them before the first heat cycle. Fingerprints ruin the bluing.

Did you guys brush them or is that how they were delivered?

Thanks! Nope, they are just as delivered. They are the Greg Lutzka edition Bassani. They are for my pops hot rod ‘01 Superglide. I’m waiting on my pipe from Jimmy at Horsepower Inc.

Trying to figure out where my squeak at startup is coming from after putting on the new exhaust. Took of shields and retightening everything. Did find a rub mark from a clamp screw on my foot peg bracket, could be that.

I ride to work almost every day of the year. 8 years baking in the sun is long enough and I didn't want or need a full cover.

I’d love the brighter ones... would not look forward to resoldering those tiny wires again. Not hard... but old eyes.
