Default A stop at Exile

Stopped at Exile today as I was in town and needed a part to get my bike rolling this weekend. Great guys with a bunch of really cool bikes. A few really bad i-phone pics.

That cross bones was the toughest I've ever seen.

The thing I like most about all of their bikes is the clean handlebar look with the brake line, clutch cables, and throttle cables all running internally like that

I'm a big fan of Russel's bikes. The simple clean feel/ look is one of the best out there.

I ordered Exile shotgun pipes for my Rocker, should arrive any day.

The shotguns are nice pipes, had em a couple years. The black finish wore right through though, that's why I wrapped them, that and they get pretty hot with no heat shields. I believe they are made by Bassani, and only carry a 30 or 60 day finish warranty on the black. Exile just licenses their name. Still great stuff coming out of that shop and Russell is a stand up guy. Spoke to him a few times over the course of my mods. Who would'a thunk, he answers the phones too!?!?

Russel only sends them out raw now, once fitted on my Rocker with mounting bracket mod I will have them ceramic coated.
