      Not sure how I missed this - great find! I look forward to the finished Kat - she'll be sweet. Stock pipes too, very nice....

            Great looking shocks and pipe, Joe. Resto-mod superbikes are one of the next big trends.. I don't have to tell you that, though... Happy to be a part of it.

                  That's a really pretty set of pipes you got there. Where and (dare I ask) how much?

                        Looks like the PO (or someone) moved the clip-ons above the top triple, rather than under, where they belong.
