Nice. She still says your wife probably didn't like it... She understands my love for the bikes, but would rather not participate. Too many rides on the back of the R6, methinks. I think I can get her warmed up. She had a Suzuki rv90, but wouldn't get out of 1st... I loved that thing! Going to get another one someday...

Love these pipes, they look like a combo of the stockers and a Yosh pipe!!

+1

just my opinion (which coincidentally is never wrong) these are by far the coolest pipes. ever.

Agreed. I think my 74 will end up looking a lot like that bike. Maybe with a stretched tank...

Love the bike, hate the rear fender/tailight deal.

Also, the handlebars have gotta go.

That bike is all over youtube, it's built by http://sb-max.com/web/ and you can get lots of cool parts from them if your pockets are deep enough.

Sounds really good.. until the whistle from the carbs kicks in because of the air filters (or lack there of) but even then its sounds good.. I think they should swap out the seat and the rear light.. The one that is on there is better then the stock one but still does not seem correct.

That's the bike that caused me to buy the 4 into 4's that Benji makes. My bike will end up looking a lot like that bike, too, but with  better rear end body work.  ;D

And don't worry, when my bike is all done, there will be video of some screamin'!!!
