Brock's sidewinder install

Re-installed the sidewinder yesterday, it was much easier the second time, as I had practice. The springs went on with a little less effort and I was able to get all of them on. I installed the pipe exactly per Brock's directions, and I got new exhaust gasket. Now just waiting on a template.
Looking back on the install, if you follow the instructions, even though they seem to make the install more difficult, they really don't. The install is still and 8 out 10. Removing flies would be a 3 out of 10, just for reference. Also, as you see in the picture, the rear brake pedal does not need to be modified, and there is plenty of clearance.




Sounds bites when I'm done, maybe week after next as I'm off to work.

I thought about the sidewinder but was afraid i was going to spend too much time beating it off the ground when i rode the bike on the street. Let me know how it does i'm thinking of switching this winter.

I won't be riding this on the street, but when I sit on the bike and really look at it on the left side, I think the ground clearance is more than adequate. Will get more pictures when I'm done.
