(sorry.... nothing personal lol... I think loud pipes for the sake of loud pipes is a real d*ck move to those around you)
No, the guy I bought the bike from did it. If you know where to get a yosh mid pipe so I can install a muffler, then speak up.
No. I bought the 954 off a dark green individual, and they almost always run straight pipes and no mirrors.

the garage full of anger-trophy mirrors....
hahaha, that is a good one! I'd like to have something like that. People will look at you strange and ask questions.
"Nah, nevermind those, just some mirrors..."

I could have given you a pair from my truck. Some bitch nailed the driver's side with a uhaul, so I just bought a new pair of ebay mirrors. They litterally went in the trash yesterday. You could have impressed your friends with tales of how you acquired them, even though you had obtained them nonviolently.


Also, if you are gonna start collecting mirrors, you have to have them mounted with the details, like a hunting trophy. You can't just have them in a pile.

Glad yall like the mirror way Gotta tell ya heading to work friday morning decided to take the RR, making a left onto a sweet 2 lane straight stretch of road, no side streets, good pavement, like the dream road for a biker. So sitting there (415am) i notice a sheriff deputy walking out of the gas station on the corner with a coffee on the phone, he even looked over at me i gave him a nod, i am making my left hit my highbeam and start getting on it when no lights or sirens sheriff car blows the stop sign right into my path, and in that instance i thought to myself, we looked at each other, kinda like meeting your maker, and hmm cop mirror, swerve into the oncoming lane which was luckily empty and got up next to his window, really really considered it, honestly did instead i just decided to wave at him, the look on his face was that oh chit look, so i let off a bit and got the number off the back of the car and let the adams county sheriff dept. know what i thought of that particular officer later in the day.

I have heard of story's of people kicking cars after almost being run over. I have had a few opportunities to try this my self but I let them go.

My concern is that if you're in any sort of a traffic jam or slow moving area and someone sees you do that and gets pissed they might want to block you off and get out and make you look as stupid as you did the car. Or the car driver themselves may do just that.

But on the other hand its unlikely and even if so I'm wondering how much of a beating I could take and give back when my entire head is covered and my jacket is layered with armor and padding. I bet after a few swings and knowing that they wont be able to injure me would be kind of scary to go up against. ESPECIALLY once I start swinging back with carbon fiber knuckles !!!

But I would honestly never want to be in the situation where i have to park my bike on the side of the street to fight some jack *** that ALREADY tried to kill me..
