I don't know what you mean by that, but they are classic cafe grips.  VERY comfy.  They are nice and squishy.

I meant they look hard as hell.

sorry for cluttering this up with :bull crap:

Please continue.

[Duffil]

front wheel looks good in black. It's coming together mang.

[CTENG in KS]

Much better than the shittay chrome/rust thing it had going on before!

[Duffil]

are you going to run a matching distanzia out back? and are you going to do anything for the engine/exhaust?

[CTENG in KS]

Yes and yes.

The engine needs to be cleaned up, but it is running fine so I am not gonna mess with it too much.  In order to accomodate the new rear suspension I am goinna mount I will need to build a new exhaust, expansion chamber and all.

  that whole expansion chamber thing is kind of a science, what kinda guidelines are you gonna follow?

yeah, but it cant be any worse than 1970s Yamaha tech, right?

I am not too concerned about a super performance chamber as this is a 20 hp bike on the street.  I  figure, like duffil said, I can probably do better than the horrific OEM design on there right now.  I am going to tune it for peak response at lower RPM to make it a better street bike.  I don't need to rev it to 14 grand goind to work on 40 mph streets.  The plan is a longer than stock head pipe connecting to a gentle tapering ROUND (stock is like square/oval molded = bad) expansion cone.  The cone will have a matching diameter conversion cone that is 1/4 to 1/3 the length of the expansion cone.  Largest diameter of the chamber will be around 4 inches.  The converging cone has to drop down to a 1.25 inch exit pipe bout 2 inches long and then into the muffler/silencer of my choice.  Preferably something large and quieter than stock.
