Scrambler style pipes on the left side with perforated heat shields.

You'd never guess this was a 450 by listening to it

Did he just cut off the old muffs and weld on the glass packs?

cool

first let me say that has to be the cleanest and classiest metric chopper I have seen, nice paint color.
I must say that your bike seems to scream classic old school so why not try to find a set of stacks on each side of the sissy bar?
I wouldn't add too much to it, I think you have done a neat job.

fnhuge,

Thanks for those kind words.

The exhaust will make or break the bike so I have been taking my time with that last detail.

Thanks for the tip on the stacks.

HOW ABOUT CUTOUTS OR SLASH CUTS....BUEATIFUL JOB BY THE WAY!!

I like the stacks idea. The natural angle from the muffler connection runs striaght up the frame. Make it a solo seater, move the sissybar up and run the exhaust right up beside it. Bob the rear fender too. I know I just hacked up your ride, that's just how I would have done it.

My favorite set of exhaust pipes I've seen lately just for pure looks is on this bike:

If I bobbed the fender and added a solo seat, to me, it would look like so many others.

But thanks for the input though.

Yeah, if you look at them in person you can see the adapters for the glasspacs increase in size. welded a bolt for mounting were the old muffelers bolted in.
