I left the kickstand down, then shifted into first gear.

Nice job man....word to the wise though on that flex pipe. Nothing wrong with it I used some of it to build part of my cat elim. but next time you have it off go ahead and spend the extra $50 and get header wrap, and the coating made for it and wrap it completly. It will start to rust a lot faster than regular pipe and seems to give off a type of resonation either due to it being so thin or the gaps because of the way it is made vibrating off itself. The wrap will protect it and seems to tighten it all up. Mine had only been on about 10 months and already had some surface rust building in the gaps so I cleaned it up and wrapped it. Looks alot better too IMHO.

Header wrap is going on the bike in a few weeks, plus the pipes are already coated in bbq grill paint, thats why their black.:thumbup:

Nice bike .. sounds great. Funny with the kick stand, I can't seem to learn my lesson with the first gear shift either. Guess that's why its there, Better to get caught killing it than picking it up off the ground! :thumbup:

Good deal, yea I coated mine too and they still managed to rust up a bit. Caused me alot more cleanup when I went in to finalize the job the last few days. :thumbup:

The bike looks sick! Great work:thumbup:

One question though: What's your turn radius with those clip-ons? I guess it's pretty wide??

 

[jtarkany]

Looks great! Really unique, I like the idea of having a theme :rockon:.

 

[jtarkany]

That really sounds good :thumbup:

You have got to do a short How To write up with a parts list for that exhaust.

 

[4drfocus]

Well lets see... you'll need three things 1. two bolt-on exhaust tips. 2. a 20" inch piece of flex pipe. 3. MIG welder. Sorry I don't really remember how I put it together, me and my buddy where just wasting time while my car dried in the paint booth.

 

[PDodson]

how did your riding stance change when you put the clip ons on? it looks like in the video it didnt change all that much maybe just a little from what I can tell.....

 

[4drfocus]

Riding stance is just like an R6s, I'm swapping the R6 clip-ons for a different pair, tired hitting the tank when backing it in & out of places.

Right on :thumbup:. I wish I was that productive when I'm waiting on something else.

 

[ny08r6]

you mentioned how an 07 doesn't need a pc3..does that also apply to an 06 when straight piping it?

 

[Geoff]

Awesome work done! You need to buy a ironman mask for fun or get a paint a helmet with the same colors, its looking pretty badass! If you get rid of the r6 clip ons let me know.

Thanks!

 

[04fizzer]

Your family has a thing for red and black paint schemes, huh?

 

[jody.adams]

Well done Mr. Stark... very cool.

 

[jody.adams]

Your new helmet.
