Yep, and the tank design was done back in the 1970's by a custom painter in the US who went by the name of "WOJO".

I bought it from a US member here who'd intended to strip it off and repaint it, but I thought it was kinda cool, so I made him an offer.

I gave it a light rub back with 1200 grit and gave it a couple of coats of 2 pack clear, and it'll be good for another 40 years.

There was a lot of work put into that paint job.

And probably a little LSD too..........

That is sweet! Do you have the side covers to match.

Thanks Mate, that's a "Peter Allen" (not the gay singer) tuned length header 4 into 2 from "Back in the day". I bought it at a swap meet for 80 bucks, and swapped it for my original Yoshimura 4 into 1 that's on the bike now.

Not that there would be anything wrong with a gay singer designing your exhaust.

Sadly no James, and I wouldn't even attempt to try to replicate the design, I don't have the skills, or the drugs to achieve that.
