carilliterate- are you running no front signals? If so, did you just snip the wires and call it a day?

I've been obsessed with the tight 2-1 pipes lately...

Tramp Cycle:



Black Chrome Japan:



Shaw Speed & Custom:





RSD:



Hidemo:




Easyriders:



Bossley Hi-pipes:





I dig it... Kind of give it a sportier look, without going over the top.

2-1's are suppose to be where the power's at anyways...

Thanks, just removed mine to see how it goes. I like the cleaned up bars and forks, and they aren't required here. I just wasn't sure if unplugging them would effect the rear lights at all. Appreciate it.

bmx- how do you like those firestones?

i cleaned them out really well and painted them after taking the dremel to em. you can't even tell i did anything unless you get up under there really close. can't tell anything was chopped but thanks, i'll take that as a compliment.
