Working on a Mod on MY Bike for once.

Before I finish up, had to add one more thing...

 

Lovin' the sticker! =P

 

Getting a late start today, headed down to the shop now.

 

That flyscreen looks badass man :thumbsup: Cool Skunk decal too!

 

Update: The screen is done and cured up ready to be put on. I DID get a bit silly on mods today. Decided that my stock exhaust looked wrong. I'm inside for dinner, headed back to the shop shortly. Will have progress pics in a few hours.

 

Ok, more than a "few" hours but here I'm am. Like I said the "potato cannon" pipe had irritated me ass much ass the fairing on this bike. So first I located a short pipe to use as a mid pipe & scrowned around the shop. Located my stock pipes off my cb750, some 3'' tube and started cutting.



--------------------------
Then I started chopping and welding till a plan started to come together..Used stock pipe internals from my CB & a set of silencers that came from a gutted TL1000R pipe.

 

So I got the pipe tacked up, all but outlet tubes, ran and tested it the installed the fly screen, completing the front end streetfighter mod.




-------------------------------------
The pipe build is not finished, gonna go gloss black on it once it's all prepped and finished. I walked away from the build at about 10pm after it made me bleed 'nuff and I needed beer.

--------------------------------------
Anyway, if time permits I MAY continue on the pipe tomorrow or just enjoy my last day off till next weekend. I'm still liking the look so far.

 

lookin great Hubby, keep up the good work!

 

Got up today and think I got a minor case of welder's flash. I think the final work on the pipe will be put off a bit.

 

I'm sure it was a contibuting factor. That and 100 tack welds w/o my mask.

 

Not wanting to let a day off go to waste, I did spenss a few hours finishing the main work on the pipe. I welded on the outlets, patched a few holes & got a good start grinding and polishing it out getting it ready to paint. I have to figure out a hanger and make some heal guards out of diamond plate.

 

Skinned knuckle picture taken with "unsmooth moments" section of the beer can, priceless sir, well done!! And yer new pipes look good, just gotta keep Sockey out of yer shop with them sharpies, sneaky little bastage.............

 

Unsmooth moments
grinded and polished out the welds ( as well as my knuckle )

 

Got 5 days of work till I can jump on this job again. Any wacked out ideas for continuing street fighter/ armor mods will be entertained from "the Order"

 

Looking good so far!

 

1 work day down & 1 day closer to finishing the bike...

 

Be on this build first thing Sat AM.... off to work
