    Your machine is pretty nice as it is, will be waiting with interest to see it when you're done with this lot.

    Have fun.

    obviously that bike doesnt get ridden much, i tried the mirror flip and it looks good as long as you only ride in a straight line, they hit the airbox bigtime when you turn

    I'm with mickrod with the looks so far... If it looks half as good as the photo when finished, with the turbo, nice.....
    I'm going to try a SERT and tuned on Tues. Remove lid, but leaving the cats in. Maybe get around the 125 mark?

    Gunna get Peter Stevens to do it. The SERT, i got from the states ( ebay ) , $330, delivered to my door. I did have the TAB package, but the un-baffled pipes were too loud for my soft ears. Also the tuner was very limited in its performance etc. I'll post dyno stats when i pick up the bike.
    Agree, the lid looks mean.

    You're not far off bomber, 116, with the cats left in ( rough quote of $150 -$200, to remove cats ). 107 before the SERT and tune. I pissed the TABS pipes off and put on pipes from the UK, which came with SMALL baffles, which gave a deeper sound. I haven't picked up the bike yet, looking forward to see the difference. Watto do you know what HP and ft/lbs your getting?
