    Nice work G! Gotta get a clip of that gutted pipe. Jealous of the lax noise laws down there!

    I spent a few (not 9!) hours with the bike yesterday as well. Pulled the wheels off and cleaned the brakes, started getting a little squeal. Sprayed everything down, lightly sanded the disk. good as new. Also tightened up a few things that worked loose. A little locktite here and there.

    Put a shorty baffle in the pipe. Just perfect. Did rob some power tho. Still amazed that I can even feel a difference with just the pipe. Even with the baffle it runs stronger and is still loud and mean, just a bit refined. Definitely better than that stock scooter sound.

    Purposely rode through the cops territory and yeah they looked but no probs. Last week I was pulling the clutch as I rolled by 'em. When my first kid was born I spent time and $$ cleaning up my license from teen age hot rodding - like to keep it clean now.

    Kb96gt,
    The rule around here is your bike don't exist without photos especially the baffled chopped muffler.

    Thanks guys,
    Barnone I did indeed have the front fender bikinied and the exhaust cut. Also added that kick@$$ seat. KB has tons of pics on the web of his bike looks nice with the paint job on the tank.
    I liked the look of the exhaust on the Df250RTB so i did something similar. I like the chrome look to it... for now.
    the Bars were a beast needed to work a few things cause they were hitting the tank took 4 hrs to get them right.
    Did the valve adjustment dropped the oil and got her going. it was a great day down at PITMotors.

    heres a video walk around.

    Gordo:

    Do you know what that set the valve clearance at?
    I saw a .004 feeler and that looks way off from what I thought it should be (.007)
    The bike looks so much better with the mods you had done =)
    I'm sure once you get the side mount plate its going to look even better o.O

    not from for the Heist, those tolerances were from the main engineer at PIT the intake is .002 was a bitch to get it right.
    They make heir own jets there I may take it from the stock 98 to a 102 with the new pipe

    i know looks like a totally different bike, once the side mount comes in i 'm going to have the rear fender bikinied as well

    That is a really sharp looking bike. Congratulations!

    Looking forward to a video with sound ... or, take an extended road trip ... to Beijing! I'd love to see one "in the raw"
