Cool pic & bike!

High Dynamic Range - or HDR for short. Nice shot - my only crit comment would be to loose the outlet and swtich on the wall... they are disctracting. Otherwise... nicely done!
Wow ,both very [clap] [clap] (picture and bike)
Love every thing about this bike but would buy some CF lamp ears ;D
you should look into those blacked out / CF Termi stickers for your pipes too :D
Great bike and very cool pic...and I like the outlet and switch in the picture. The pic has a "steampunk" feel to it.
Sweet pic. +1 on the steampunk. The first word that came to mind for me was "greasy". Greasy is cool (in this case).
NICE! [thumbsup]
Great picture...and nice bike! [thumbsup] I like the chopped Termi cans a lot...1st set of double stacked cans that I think looks good. [thumbsup]
Thank you for the kind words. I used a program called photmatix to get the picture to look the way it does.. it is a very easy program to use- if anyone has pics they'd like the same effect done feel free to shoot me an email. [thumbsup]
As for the mods, the bike is always a work in progress and all suggestions are welcome..

I haven't ever seen these before. any idea where I can find some?
ebay. Just search for Termignoni stickers and you should find them pretty easily
I actually havent seen a cf termi sticker on ebay before
If have purchased some from there... so I know they did exist..

Look awesome.
hot make the beast with two backsin bike!
how do you like the modified hand positioning of the flipped bars? been considering doing this myself but only if the bar ends come back a little more than they do in the stock position...
^^ I like the position better than stock since it's lower-- the bend back is pretty much the same as before from what I can tell. The flipped bars feel more comfortable with my hands not getting numb over long freeway rides.
Nice, very nice work. I'm curious what shortening the cans did to their sound/performance? I've been thinking of doing a similar chop, but I don't want to be bummed with the outcome.

I didn't notice much change in either sound or performance.. I did it in order to get the pipes to look right with the tail chop... so more of an aesthetic mod than anything. If you're on the fence, I say go for it [thumbsup]
[clap] Sick bike, it is bad for sure. Also nice shot. I like the outlet an switch in the picture, it really adds to the shot IMO.
where did you get those termi short cans? are they normally sold or did you modify them and do they even make a difference with sound at all?
those bad boys are custom chopped.
tools needed? probably a hack saw, a breather mask, and some huge balls.
Max, that is a great picture and a really good looking bike! [beer]
Beautiful bike and nice pic editing. but you titled the thread cycle cat rearsets and I can barely see them.. ??? :-[ any close ups? Are they custom anodized? I know they usually have a red washer
great photo.
