Thanks for the inquiry Glenn, sorry for the delay in the response.

I have been dealing with chrome issues with my plater. If anybody in the Twin Cities area is looking for a plater, I recommend doing your homework before taking it to J&D Plating in St. Paul MN. (anyone can PM me for details if interested)

Anyway, I just got it back together last weekend and it is a blast to ride. It turns a lot of heads and I get a lot of comments. Hear is a pic of the final product:

Very nice Paul!

Not deaf yet? ;)

Sound with open pipes is mind-blowing when you pull through the gears at high rpm.
Been riding mine since 10 days now and indeed, it does turn heads.

Just ordered some better earplugs with a bit more noise reduction... :D

Haha!

That brings up a question. Does opening/closing the snuffs affect the jetting requirements?
