Exhaust!!

 I fabricated a new battery box that will allow the use of the K&N Pod filters. Installed the wiring harness but I have not buttoned it all up just yet. My plan is to get the bike running, make sure I have reconnected everything correctly, and then do the final install of the harness. I also used steel wool to clean the headers and installed the Dan Moto exhaust. Next up is fabricating two supports for the cans that will hook to the back of the peg mounts. The clip on bars with a 3 inch rise have been ordered and should be in next week. I also finally made it over to Battery Motors to pick up the intake gaskets. Next week I should have the intake system back together.
For good measure I set the tank on the bike to see how it would look. The tank and the frame color are actually slightly different on paper but due to the separation I can't tell a difference. After the bars get here I should have almost everything I need to assemble the bike to a point where I can start it. Until next time.
