For those who aren't on my speed dial TXT/PIX list.. here's some updated pics!!!  Moving right along...
My apologies if the pics show up huge.  I hope they auto-rescale for everyone.



This is the new muffler that'll be set up low mount and on the right side 2 into 1.

Some guy at PJ's (didn't get a name. Looked like a tech, but was at the SVC counter).. Just informed me that the idle speed couldn't be adjusted on my bike.  Then told me the ECU couldn't be adjusted.  Then told me that if I adjusted the throttle bodies to raise the idle speed, my oxygen sensors wouldn't read correctly.  I'm STILL in shock.  Bike has no O2 sensors, ECU can adjust low rpm/idle fuel trim, and YES the idle can be adjusted.  /Rant Off

Just a couple loose ends to tie up at this point.  The biggest one is going to be the exhaust.  Some OE 1098 pipes I thought were going to work turned out to be not exactly what I was after.. so I'm going to have to get some stainless tubing and start one from scratch.  Here's what today brought:
.. Oh and it RUNS AGAIN!!! 






Its more or less how I'm gonna have the exhaust set up.. minus the red bunjee cord.  Krystle suggested I use Duc-Tape instead.
