Cpt Morgan....does your pipes differ from each other from tire. I wonder if it's how the Lo's engine is balanced/offset vs. pipe designs. When I took my bike in last fall, I asked for the shop to look at mine. They said something is wonkey and probably have to modify the pipes somehow. And ya the install was a biatch. After tinkering with my pipe brackets, they are still 1/2" different...and drives me nutz knowing and do notice it.
Mine are within 1/16 of an inch within each other. The only reason I can think about them being off is that maybe your rear pipe is not pushed as far as it can be onto the rear cylinder headpipe?
JC: I'm digging that pinstriping! I especially like how clean and simple it looks by the gas tank. I love the other work too, but for some reason, the striping around the gas caps just really works for me! Glad you went with the blue to, looks nice to be a little different than all the rest.

Misbehaven, I was looking into a touring passenger pillion and came accross pics from a post of yours a couple of years back. My question is about the contrast between the panels, did it come out the box that way? Was it redone to look like that? Or is it just the way those pics turned out?

It came that way. But after some cleaning and conditioning it darkened up some. I do believe that HD sells another one without the textured panel.
