          Yep, not a bad start at all! Must agree with Ed though, they sound horrid without mufflers IMHO...

          She should tidy up real nice

            450s float if you unweight them a little. Usually removing the mufflers is enough

              the plate on the bike in front of my 450 is my old plate on my buddies xj650. only temp until we get it running right. the military shipped my 450 for me with my household goods. one muffler was dented so i cut them for now. i just got a set of slip ons i plan on using. i have more plans than money right now. so things will be going slowly. I do want to do the tank, fenders and plastics a deep blue, with the island chain on the tank and tikis on the plastics

                Hope the handle bars are somewhere on your list too.

                But for the sake of everyone around you, mufflers man!

                    Wow this place is like talking to my dad! Mufflers muffler mufflers... did he say he was riding it yet?? :-) My bike had a "muffler" when I bought it but muffle it did not.

                    Looks like a tidy bike. Have fun with it! Oh, and you'll need mufflers.
