new pipe - Osti take note!
yep, i am pretty happy with my new pipe!
closeup of the beautiful Ti can
note the EXCELLENT lower spring is from Brock, he gave it to me on the condition I put one of his stickers on my bike. 
BTW: The truth is that the pipe is a Muzzy Ti Pro Pipe, an absolutely beautiful piece of mechanical art.
The Brock sticker over the Muzzy plate is an inside joke between Osti and I.
Both Osti and I will be running the Muzzy pipes at the upcoming Texas Mile.
Actually, here i am REAL pissed off, got an electrical gremlin which is kicking my ass.
Wifey took the pic and said "go drink some whiskey, you'll solve it tomorrow..." good advice, i took it

Man Karl you don't look like I do when I'm pissed. We truly are fortunate to have understanding wives, aren't we?
I thought about the Ti Pro Pipe but at $195, the stainless fit my budget better.
Good luck at Texas next month........ride safe!

hey Dan,
yep, understanding wives! I can't believe my wife puts up with me. As an example, her car has been in that garage only one time in 6.5 years.
Late one night, my kids and i put her beloved Toyota in the garage.
She came out in the morning and found her car GONE! Went screaming to me "someone stole my car!!"
She never even thought to look in the garage
(my kids & I thought it was hilarious, my wife :boratvoice "not so much" )
On the pipe, I would have bought the SS if i had known about it when i got the Ti, fabulous deal the SS (and the Ti)

lol. I can't see the pics here at work. All of the sites like photobucket and snapfish are blocked here at work so the pics just show up as red x's. I'll have to wait until I get home tonight. I am already laughing just from the description.

Karl, how much did you have to raise you bike for that pipe?
Did you had to go back to a stock oil pan?

G. I put it 1" higher and had to put the OEM pan on.
But this set up is just for the Texas Mile, going back to SW and Koenig pan for 1/4 mi after Mar 24-25.

Karl, I just KNOW you don't go out to work in the shop in flip flops!! You going to lose a toe if you don't watch it.....
And I have a BRAND new lift like that at the house that has nvever had a bike on it. I even went and bought a new front chock/clamp like that one that is still in the box.

Chan,
you are right about the flip flops...
That lift is the tits (considering i paid $400 incl the upgraded wheel vice). I've had it for about a year and love it.
Would I rather have one of the $1200 shop-quality lifts?? Yep
Did I have $800 left over to spend on Bud Light?? Yep, about 1000 cans of BL!

NOX, i'm up for LR's Flying Saucer
Especially now that I know they have Bud Light on tap!!!!!! (note 1st pic!!!!!)
However, i must point out that i never called BL a "beer", rather I call it a "refreshing malted beverage"
