They're working out good, gonna try to sell my big radius' now that I'm keeping these. I just put on black exhaust wrap so I'm happy now. I get a ton of compliments and looks and I think it's cuz nobody else has these. I started seeing big radius pipes on every bike at the dealership. Shoot me your email and I'll get you a video of them although it probably won't do justice.

DWB: Lookin good man! I thought you were gonna powder coat them, but this look great. now just do the lower forks, the engine pieces (rocker boxes, timing cover, trans cover, etc.), and console and you will be good to go on goin to black haha.

Just in case you didn't notice, I have been tryin to get others to do the things I want to do

I need another tax refund, haha!

But in all seriousness, bike is lookin good man. Keep it up!

Thanks man...I plan on powdercoating them but I'm gonna wait until the harsh winter comes and break everything down Sgt Jim style and send to PC. I got me a manual and feel like I can do anything with it. This is just temporary along with all my other cheap DIY mods haha!

Personally not a big fan of wrapped pipes on a nice bike like that, I think those will look great PC'd black.

Before



After





I like it, the chrome was killing me before. Not only does it look good, but you did a hell of a nice wrap job! If it were me, I would saw off the tips and that would give her a meaner look. Either way, looks good bro.
