That's a killer bike, bro.

What all have you done to it besides the sweet paint job?

I see new pipes, new tail light, wire tuck, lift, new seat, air cleaner, speedo relocate.

BTW, what pipes are those? They look nice.

Very cool! I thought they looked like a V&H shape, but removing the heat shields made them much slimmer. Looks much better!

If you don't mind me asking another question, what brand of seat is that?

Hey saul, after you removed the heat shields on the Big Radius pipes, did you then have them painted black, or are they black underneath the heat shields?


Thanks, man
