That is very similar to one that I just sold a few weeks ago. The pipes are cooler though. This one had some odd 4 into 2 setup where what looked like some Harley pipes had been grafted to the original pipes. The biggest giveaway that they weren't supposed to be there was the fact that someone did some dumpy work on them and one end was crushed almost flat and the other end was perfectly round. The crazy things people do.

This will be a cool bike though. Lots of potential for awesomeness.
