Whipped up a quick bracket for the rear of the exhaust.  Carbs are half done.

JMO. I still think you should do something with those oil cooler lines. They look like a second thought. Flip the cooler and run them with cleaner lines.

That's how this cooler is setup to work.  It's from ttr400.  I'm happy with how it turned out.  I have to clamps to hold the lines in place that are going on.

Actually made some progress.  Got the carbs back on the rack and put on the bike so I can route my throttle cables.  Now I can put on the HRC 1/4 turn throttle.  Also got my 11mm brembo brake master and domino clutch perch.
