Just some food for thought.

Thnx for all the replies guys. I got it to move forward a small bit and I'll see if that is enough after riding it........I think the cure will be to go do a track day so the back tire weares down a bit after that I'll go back to a 180. I'm also goin go take the front header pipe off and see if that is limiting the angle of the mid pipe. I can always have that pipe modified.
