I really like your choice of exhaust! Although I am not a fan of tank lifts, coil & ignition relocations, wire tucks and that style of headlight fairings on a Sporty; why[?], because it seems that the more things become "custom," unfortunately, the more they become "normal." Thankfully, my opinion means squat - but you did post pics, so I'm merely commenting on them...ride safe!
