Yeah I didn’t even notice when I was scratching my head about it being out of whack earlier!

Underdog1:
Quick go on the seat today. Instead of using trim strips around the seatpan to stop the cover wearing throughbo glued some vinyl material. Roughly shaped the foam with a bread knife, hard to neatly cut recon foam as it turns out! Have left the foam slightly oversized for now as it’s being covered by a friend who is a pro so he can probably trim it back a bit nearer than what I can.






Underdog1:
not wanting to get into anything serious with the bike today I’ve made up the 4 into 1 exhaust. The reverse cone is 12 inches long and was 0.7mm too small to slide over the collector (according to my micrometer!). Cut a slit in it, lubed it up with copper slip and banged it on with a rubber mallet. The bracket is just for show as it won’t be coming off again without a fight!

Rob62:
Any baffles in there ?  :D

Looks nice, is it a good fit onto the cyl head? The headers and collector look nicely formed, what make is it, or is it made up from various pipes?
