I know most everyone wont like what I've done here, but I think it looks neat and it is right in my price range and I am also going to get some 4in baffles to go into the headers just to help out with back pressure.

The guy I got my Superhawk from, gave me a C200 Touring. I thought that it was in bad shape but after seeing this it may have some hope!

Thanks!! I have a shorty muffler painted black that came with the bike...I put it on just to see wha it looked like and I liked it a lot, so I might get a pair of those and paint them.

Hahaha, my bike was pretty much junk...but with a lot of work and more money then its worth, its coming along great!!! It just takes a lot of time, but its been lots of fun putting it together.

Is this what you're thinking of Mike? This is what I think would look great.

pipes

Vince,
That's the look. I think there are pipes called Long Shots or something that have the same length, but no fish tail (hopefully baffled in some way). I think Johnnies tires look great too.
