Looks great! the copper 14 might have to work on me a bit but the model made it much more easier too look at
Lighter wheels make a huge difference don't they?

and ....... as for the "Blue one"

All I can say is daum ... The more I get out and ride this thru the canyons, the
better and better it feels. When I first posted this I was taking it a little easy and
was in the process of scrubbing in new tires. Today I was able to get out and
put the power down. With very little adjustment on the new suspension this
bike handels far beter than the stock configuation. It's hard staying off this thing -
Im go'in back out riding.

Nice looking bike Bob.... great picture of all those 14's lined up.... What year did the 12R have a similar color scheme as your bike...black with the gold wheels?

FBA ..... I kinda sat and laughed when I read that. There's a dump pipe currently on
the bike. I exits the fairing about two inches and stops. Now I did do a full exhaust
for it also useing a Muzzy Ti oval can, let me see if I can find a pic and post it.
Bob
I got em ... here's the dump pipe:

Here's the full system:

The turbo ZX is running fantastic ...... just over 1,000 miles on it since the installation.
The handeling is even better now things are setteling in. While I love to drag race,
this bike was built for the twisties - Im sure I could take it out and turn a decent number,
but no interest in that rite now.

After reading you post I went and looked - yes I am scraping it just a bit.
The strips on my bike are about 1/8 so its not hindering the handeling to
bad. The filter has some flexability, so if I can wear the strips off completely,
it should'nt do anything to the filter. (just scratch it)
