    mocked up the custom exhaust

    final touches to include a painted tail section. The tail is done in plasti-dip so that it is easily removable in case i dont like it.

    The new muffler looks good!! The Honda engineer that designed that funky fender extension should be flogged!!

    I like it!! Yeah I just don't get the fenders coming out the last 20 or so years. I cut about 4" off mine years ago. Yours doesn't look so easy to do....

    We heard you the second time!
    Good job on the plastic dip. Blends nice with the rest of the bike.

    I cut mine off just at the lower portion of the licence plate and now regret it. Then again, if you don't ride in the wet, then it is great cut off.

    But yeah. I like personal touches. Most of them anyways. Looks good, all black and without that silver. Love that plasti dip stuff. But there are other products on the market out there that I am sure are the same thing as plasti dip but much cheaper. Having said that, I have a couple cans of plasti dip in my paint cabinet.

    ive used plasti-dip a lot and i love the stuff. removes very easily.

    my wife manages a body shop and her boss said he wont charge me to paint the pieces because i do a ton of motorcycle work for him.

    In some circles swerving can have other meanings. A: Can we pick up the pace?" or " Alright asshole Harleydood who is taking his half out of the middle needs to move the hell over."

    MC LEO's might understand this tire warming/scuffing process, but the LEO's in Patrol vehicles might not buy the explanation. Quoting the law to a cop or telling him him or her you know more aboot the law than they do ain't real smart.

    If Bruce Lee really said all that stuff aboot water. I wonder what he might have been thinking when he flushed after taking a leak?

    I only swerve to avoid possums and raccoons, and occasional squirrel.

    I think you posted that in the wrong place.

    Trying to see what buttons to push?
