I liked it... until I saw the right side. Are those leg warmers?
Pipes suck. Pretty cool otherwise. [thumbsup]
Looks wheelie fun. [evil]

Probably routed that way so they are equal length...
Pipes are any easy mod if you don't like them.
That bike works for me! That's the sort of stuff Harley should have been making years ago. Years, I tell you.

That bike was never on the street. Once again, easy mod.
Oh, and if you want to know how they do in the modern era. ;)

Cool bike! I like his Yammys and Triumphs as well. [thumbsup]

I do prefer the more elegant left side pipes I've seen on some of his other bikes. The heat isn't bad if the pipes are coated with a cermanic coating.

If heat from the pipes was too great then I'd go with these pipes he made for his Web Surfer bike. He does a great job of tucking the exhaust into the bike, so it looks custom made. Most after market and some stock exhaust systems just seem to hang way too far out and away from the bike.

Wow....that's a beauty. The gold wheels and the retro look.... [thumbsup]

HD and brakes? Depends on what you mean by "brakes". [laugh]
I like it!
I still like the bike but at $21K or so for a new build is a bit out of my range. Still a very cool product.

I know. I'm not quite able to spend that on a bike. I was there was a secret craigslist where used versions of Mule Street Trackers could be found. There could also be used Kenny Dreer VR880 Nortons on this list.
