Man...no love out here for the sharkfin! Doesnt really matter they are almost impossible to come by unless you get lucky on Ebay.

Tee&Vee, do you mean my old exhaust? Yeah, its for sale.

Thanks for the kind words everyone!

Thanks Mike, I looked at that but the diameter is just too small (by almost an inch)

Would have been cool

Hmmmmm. Show me your numbers and I'll show you mine.


Dude, your bike looks killer, RUB!

Socal, you are my RUB Nizzle fo Shizzle...You know I was stressing that Covington shift linkage!

My final dyno tune is in a couple weeks...I will post my sheet. Its an unkown combo for my indy, kind of a little experiment. I might end up with some nice torque even if the ponies dont show.

With this exhaust my ears dont ring when I get back from a ride...not a bad thing, that BR was crazy loud.

I like the thick curves and contours of that 2 into 1...and the reducer at the end looks badass. Really nice, Motown.

Mo that exhaust looks amazing I would keep looking for the sharkfin it would add a bit more retro to it. Way to think out of the box.

Saaaayyy Whaat?? Dood you pulled that one out, I remember you asking and looking around awhile back.

Motown, that right there looks awesome brother! I'm loving the look of the bazooka brother. I'd love to hear that beast. Your sled is looking SIC and definitely is working that blk/wh mojo!!
