        Your bike looks terrific.
        These could probably be bought cheap and with a little polishing would turn out nice.
        Just make sure to use the proper length mounting bolts. Lots of stories about damaged cases.


        There is also a new set for $100.

            Man. That looks like fun for days on the back roads. Clean and sharp!

                Its an old Motad full exhaust!

                So here is a question for you folks I need to replace the clutch plates as i'm getting some shuttering on engagement and not having much luck adjusting my clutch feel some i'm guessing i'm warped. I believe i remember reading that the GS500 are better and compatible. Can anyone confirm this?
