Default OT: New Motorcycle Exhaust Combo

This is way Off Topic, but I thought I would share, none the less. Over the weekend I finished up an exhaust project that I have been working on for my motorcycle; a 2006 Honda RC51 (RVT1000R). The midpipes are pure titanuim, manufactured by Sato,and they weighed the same as the bubble wrap they came in. The exhaust mufflers and manufactured by Yoshimura, which I shortened to 12". The pictures look terrible, unfortunately. I took them with my phone.

Ah, thank you gentlemen! Work so far goes something like this:

Sato/Yosh slip-ons
Power Commander III USB
Flapper Mod
Stainless Brake Lines
Scotts Steering Damper
Dan Kyle'sFork Preload Adjusters
Full LED Replacement of Digital Tach/Odo/Speedo to White
Gregg's Customs Flush LED Front Signals
Eyebrow Mod
Competition Werks Undertail
LED Tailight Swap w/ Integrated Turn Signals
Carbon Tank Protector
Driver Rear Bump Pad
Hyper White Bulbs
Plenty of stuff I am forgetting.

She is a beauty and a beast at the same time. Girls love riding on it because of that lovely vibrating v-twin powerplant. Unfortunately, from here on out, she is a solo bike because of the new exhaust. [:@]Oh well, she is destined to be a track-only bike anyway.

Damn that thing is too nice for the track. Buy a salvaged one for that and save the beauty to show off

Thanks! You should hear it. The sound of a harley, but deeper with no rasp. It sets off car alarms when I downshift.

Ah, she really isn't a stunting bike. I used to do stunts on my old bike, a GSXR600. Last thing I was doing before I sold it and got this one was highchair wheelies. This bike I am dedicating strictly to track racing and canyon thumping.
