    Got a chance to try these BITUBO shocks out. WOW what a difference in comfort and stability.
    Can only compare them to the stocker shocker but the difference is day and night

    Greeneggs the stand on the floor is just a pull back stand I made and the lift under the Bob is a little scissor lift I got with the bike hoist

    I put 12.5 on mine but would even go 13 as my mate has.
    Gets the bike up a tad without changing looks, but gives more clearance and prevents scraping.

    Finally got some action on the new pipe last night, Got a couple of progress pics

    This is the email from Steve

    Hi Ando, I just finished up the inside of your collector for that big ass motor. See how its blended and knifedged for max flow and a smooth merge.That's yours on the top compared to one for a 96".

    I reckon they look choice. High tech and still look bright and some chrome. Remote reservoir shocks are the ducks nuts .

    The exhaust guy looks like he knows what hes doing too.

    Gonna be a great sled when ya finish mate , well done.

    Also I have been doing some Smart Tuning, Thanks Hilly for you tips,

    The VE's moved a round a fair bit so hope that was for the better, Head temps never over 270F and didn't pull any timing so that's positive.

    Hi Ando, your new ride looking good, any plans to take it to the track when its all sorted?

    thats hard getting a guy other side of globe to make your custom pipe, hope they fit , Was a guy in QLD named Gonzo who was experienced at Harley pipes.

    Mark WAkker used him when he drag raced. but not sure if he still does it.

    Hey Ando, that's shit that you are still waiting on that pipe....  At least you've got a few other goodies to play around with while you wait. 

    What oil cooler is that, and did you get it from Mark at M&M cycles?

    cheers,

    Berms
