Make that 2.  But only if I can get mine with a red headlight so it can look like Rudolph!  [moto]

B8, help me out.  Is the termi a 2/1?  I like the 2/2 stock look so much more.  Why does the mid pipe look like its outside the bike.......is it rerouted?  I cant tell from the pics.

now that's a dual exhaust  [thumbsup]
Title: Re: Just in Time for Christmas...
Post by: bryant8 on October 01, 2008, 07:10:29 PM
Yep, it's a 2-1 exhaust.  I like the 2-2 much better it's better looking, better symmetry.

The Roland Sands HM is bad ass looking but a bit to blingy for my tastes.

yeah, like I said, "superbikes"  was the first thing I thought of.  I would like to see it more stock looking, but blacked out with that exhaust in black too.  Maybe red frame and rim tape......

As far as the Neiman Marcus Christmast bikes, I like the 748L better than the HM for this year. 

FYI there's a 748L for sale in the DFW area, I forget where I saw it... eBay probably

Pretty good chances yes - headed to AMS at lunch today to pick up windscreen (more like tiny air deflector) to help at cruising speed.

I don't have a super cool hyper, but if the screen is anything like the ones on mine, It's pretty much a jet stream for bugs to hit your shield  [thumbsup]

Lucky I'm short, they hit my shield all the time now, maybe this will do the trick  [roll]
