Looks good.  [thumbsup] I'd take the blinker spacers out to shorten them up. Easy free mod that cleans up the front.

Nice bike!   [thumbsup]   [Dolph]

For starters, remove the sticker from the swingarm and paint the sprocket carrier.   ;D

Are those the mirrors off eBay at about $50-60 a pair?
How does the quality look like from close up?

Thanks for the tip.  I didn't know that was possible.

Looks good!  [thumbsup]

It'd look better if you got the headers ceramic coated satin black though.  ;D

Which pipe is that you have on the bike?  It looks great.

Normally I'm of the same mindset, but I think that setup looks good as is...

Remus, thanks.

How does it sound?  How much louder is it than stock?  Did you have to do a reflash?

Thanks,

Jim

The Remus exhaust sounds great.  It's noticably louder than stock because I removed the dB killers.  I didn't reflash, but I had my dealer (Ferracci) install and tune a PC V with O2 optimizers.  It's pretty smooth.

Clip-ons would make this thing look even more beast, but job well done.

Looks nice..

Btw to shorten the signals, do you just have to randomly cut whatever is you want shorten or you just take it out and the spacer falls right out?

thanks

 Like the shape of that muffler and end cap.   [thumbsup] looks good.

I would ceramic coat the pipe Ti grey or stainless for maximum goodness.   ;)

A spacer is inserted to make the signals US legal. Remove the long attachment bolt, buy shorter bolt and reinstall without spacer. Sorry I don't recall the bolt size, I took the bolt to home depot and matched up a shorter size.

I just did this the other night.  Really easy.  but as the last danaid said, just take the bolts to a hardware store and get some shorter ones.  I just happend to have some that were shorter and fit perfect, in my bag of odds and ends.  Oh, and you have to remove the headlight. Also easy, just remove the two bolts below the light on the inside and lift the light up and off.
