Thanks for the compliments everyone :) I brought it to work last week and everyone there thought I was insane for cutting up a brand new bike. haha

I love and hate you at the same time. That is pretty much exactly how I want to build a bike that I will someday own, so you have great taste, but you beat me to the punch.

Over the last couple weeks, I've been buying some new goodies!
First off, I got some Motrax bar end mirrors, so I can actually see behind me again! They replace the stock weighted bar ends, and attach to the end of the bar.

While surfing ebay last week, I found the exact exhaust system I want to use. They go for $760 new, but I got this one used for $236 shipped. It's a little beat up, but nothing I can't deal with.

In order to use this exhaust system, I need to either relocate, or eliminate the LED blinkers I bought to replace the stockers when I cut the shovel off the back end, so I bought a Clear Alternatives light with the blinkers integrated into the brake/tail light. A friend of mine has one on his bike, and I really liked it, so I decided to get one too.

I've also been kicking around the idea of a new paint scheme. I think I've decided on a blaze orange/black scheme.

The website isn't letting me attach pics right now, so I'll have to try again later. Hopefully I'll be able to start riding by mid/late March, weather and road contitions permiting.

Sounds awesome! Post pics as you install stuff/swap stuff out, I don't get all the rear-end light switching that needs to happen.

Ok, so I guess it just wasn't letting me upload the .bmp images. So here's the mirror, and exhaust I got.

The blinkers I have now stick out from the license plate mount, and that's right where the new pipes will be. So I could have just relocated them, but that would have just looked weird, and I didn't want to drill holes in the plastics.

Ahh I see! That exhaust looks sexy!
