"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

correct.  This one is just to make sure the bores are in the right location, right offcet etc.  When we got the GSXR front end it had the wrong upper triple, so I decided to make one.

Ill be making both upper and lower triples with 30mm offset for my monster.
