Good stuff man - I might actually see you there then, picking up the Widow on Saturday as well
Oh cool! I'll be there around 10:30-11:00 AM. I'll be there for a few hours going over the bike with Tom, blacking out the exhaust and some other stuff.Quote:

turner, I did mine with a 15' black wrap. make sure you soak it before applying. I soaked mine for 12 hours to get it nice and pliable. Use gloves when you wrap it, the blue nitrile worked fine for me, and clothes you dont mind getting dirty. After soaking start at the rear of the pipe loop it once the work your way up. Keep it tight.
I used hose clamps to lock it down. I then reattached the pipe started the bike and let it run to dry it. Took it off again then sprayed it with the silicone and let that set before putting it back on the bike

Thanks for the tips on wrapping, I'll be sure to follow through
Anyone have problems in 5th gear? I would shift in to 5th and would start to lose acceleration.This would happen at 55mph and would come and go. I am going to check the fluid level in the morning and wanted input on other things to check.
lewnor, would it bottom out or hesitate? Is your throttle cable caught kinked or snagged?
I haven't had this issue but will ask around for you.
