Default Bazooka gone!

Thanks to Conrice and txsmainevent before him ... the bazooka is gone! Thank god I can be heard on the road finally. After a lot of angles and aches, I managed to do my first big (to me at least) customization on my bike. Now to decide what the next one will be ... any suggestions??

Very nice! I'm so sad I don't have my baby. I want another bike, a track only bike. Hello again gentleman!


Edit: Brotherhood of the traveling pipes!

Looks great... Very clean... So, how much louder is compared to your old set-up?

Well the stock pipe is so quiet people couldnt even hear me next to them. Now I'm told I can be heard way down the road. I love the deeper rumble it has.

ya, it's hard to describe, because it's technically a straight pipe, but it doesn't sound like just an exhaust with no can on it. it has a distinctive sound. and it's mean as hell. then there's the weight savings. that mid-pipe only weighs 5.6lbs wrapped up in a cardboard box, i never weighed the stock pipes, but damn it has to save a ton of weight.

Naw no Duc. Honda with all the race parts and no street parts. Looking for bikes with potential like wrecked or lost/no title.
