Default New exhaust and some other goodies

Thanks to tterrag for the OEM header and also mrgrn for the hangers and front fender.

- Header has been ceramic coated by Aesthetic Finishers in Piqua, OH
- Exhaust is Sato Lows in Carbon
- Got the adjustable camera mount from ebay and its surprisingly awesome for $30.

I gave Scott the money for a rear underhung kit so that will make its way on there soon, and a Scotts damper will be ordered before track season as well.

Left side seems to hang a bit lower than the right...oh well its a track bike nothing has to look perfect .

Thanks.

Yeah, that will be on the list right after the steering damper. A DK link and Ohlins will find its way on there, may have to wait til track season has started though.

Default Nice !!!!

Great looking pipes!! Also I like the black and gray with the white decals, I've wondered how that would look. I am looking at an 06 and love that paint scheme but I am not a big red fan. So I wondered what it would like like white, now I know. How did you do it, is it aftermarket fairings or did you just remove the red decals and replace them with white? Great looking bike !!!
RIDE ON !!! HOOVY

Where did you get the cannister clamps? They're very sharp looking.
Are those from Mark?

They look better in person, they look awesome and should keep temps down and prevent rust.

The bodywork is by Cheetah which I painted with good 'ole rattle cans. I got the decals from a guy on ebay that does them in silver, black, red, or white.

Are you talking about the straps around the cans? Those came with the Satos.

Here's the guys that did the headers.

Aesthetic Finishers - Ceramic Header Coating and Powder Coating - Home

Called them up and the customer service was AWESOME. Had them there and back in a little less than a week. About $160 and it looks as though they may have coated all the way through the inside too.

Thumbs up Nice!

Hey Chuck,

Great to see you're sticking with her, as She came out Awesome mang. Looking good for sure.. Hey, what Rear-Sets are those you have there, "Attacks" or?

Also, Funny about the camera mount working so well... Looks like there'd be alot of Vibration with it hanging way out like that.

Peace Jeff

The rearsets are Woodcraft's and I just had them powdercoated black to blend in with the bike a little better. And the camera mount is actually mounted on rubber. I haven't tested it yet, but from other people's videos it appears to be rock solid.

Here's some more mods for everyone's viewing pleasure.

Notice the brake lever that has been ground off from the keyhole at mid-ohio. Was the main reason I got aftermarket rearsets.

When I bought the bike, the guy gave me an old rear stand that was chrome with rust all over it....lol. So I had it powdercoated and stuck a few decals on it.

Got a TurnOne airbox (Thanks Brett) and also a rear link (thanks bensexcessbikes). Now I just need to save up for an Ohlins shock, give Dan Kyle a shout and then she'll be ready to rip up some racetracks this summer.

I may not get around to installing the airbox for a little while, we'll see how things go as I want to be able to get it tuned after installing it.



The rear link is installed but no pics, I'll take some once I get the Ohlins.
