      Current shots, please...I'm getting really amped up for riding season about now... and a GS1100E that I've never seen just passed me on the highway...
      Not yet chuck! Trust me I am just as eager to see it as you. Just getting into exam season right now and the weather in my area hasn't been good enough to warrant the change over. I don't want to get the new paint full of grime right off the bat.

        Thanks Pete! Yeah the pipe really is something, certainly can't imagine there are many of these still around. Sounds like the devil, its phenomenal.

          There's plenty of absolutely awesome looking pipes on the Webike web site but way out of my price range, you did well to score that set for sure.

                    thanks chuck! I need to learn how to do that.

                    And yeah, weather was absolutely terrible up until Friday. Gorgeous this weekend though!

                      Yeah, pipe and paint make a huge difference. I like the black front fender, too. Well done, now go ride the crap out of it.

                                Thanks Ed, still would like to source a larger set of carbs and eventually get it dyno tuned at my local shop.
