Default New exhaust and fender elim w/ pics

So i got my new fender eliminator installed, painted black to match the bike.
I also put on my new Yoshi TRS in Carbon Fiber which I think looks really good on the red/black paint.
What do you guys think?

wow that's pretty clean... i pretty much have the same set up as you except the CW FE kit. was that easy to put on? also do you have pics of the rear (directly from the back) after you put on your exhaust? I want to see how aligned yours is. I didn't put on the spacer where you connect it to your passenger pegs and it may look a little off in my eyes...

Thanks for the compliment. The kit was not too bad. I wish I had a better tool for cutting the old fender. I used an old dremel with a terrible drill bit that really just melted through the plastic instead of cutting it. That took the longest. Other than that it really just bolts right up. I really like how it came out in the black to match the bike.
Also, I can get a pick up later today of the exhaust alignment from the back. I never saw a "spacer" in my hardware that came with the exhaust. The exhaust hanger just slid over the stock passenger bolt and then I tightened it up. This exhaust is definately angled in towards the rear tire more than the stock exhaust.

directly behind the license plate bracket, out of site. It's pretty nice, unless your constantly taking your seat off.

Thanks voodoo! I was thinking the exact same thing about cutting too much off. As far as the next few mods, I really want a new windscreen(ZG DB in dark smoke), maybe some vortex frame sliders, and possibly and integrated tail light (just worried about visibility). I have already noticed with the flushmounts in the front people just dont see them.

I've been struggling with doing the flushies as well because of visibility. I've started to rationalize andtell myself that people don't seeme anyway. I could be in a hazmat suit, and some crazy bitch doing her make up, or some old bastard with a dog on his lap is going to try and run me over anyway. I'm putting on some braided Galfer brake lines next, then I'm looking at chinging my indicators. Good luck, bro. Keep us posted.
