just about all of them can be hidden, the bottle is the largest component and as long as you have a place for that everything else is fairly easy to hide. I run the Muzzys combo air/nos kit and really like it but I have installed several of Schnitz's kits and they are good too.

muzzy's is completly plug n play.
if you run the HUb with your pc3, 1 wire and an extra relay will allow you to activate a seperate map for the NOS, alloiwng for perfect fuelling on and off the dope.

They are just distributors. NOS makes a good kit and they have good support on the phone. I'd stick with the hard wires if doinig over again.

Flyboy what are you saying?
The muzzy system is complete.... you need nothing but tools to install it. not just a distributor!
Hard wires?

From my research... there are two companies that make nitrous components for 4 cylinder bikes, NOS and NX and they are both good. Muzzy and Schnitz each get their own custom packages from one or both of these companies to suit their particular customer needs and usually offer a break in the price to us, the consumer. There is nothing wrong with this as everyone does it. In California we have Safeway food stores and most of their packages have the Safeway name on it but in reality when you are buying Safeway frozen peas you are probably buying Birdeye peas or one of the other brand names. Muzzy and Schnitz would have offices and warehouses larger than Walmart if they made all their products which we all know is not the way to do busines.
In regard to the lines, I am speaking of braided lines running from the solenoids to the nozzles. I wish I had listened to another nitrous user when he recommended them. The plastic lines are cheap and hard to deal with. During one run at Bonneville two of them came out of the nozzles at 190 mph and almost caused me to blow my engine. NEVER GO PLASTIC!. Sorry for the caps but I wanted to yell it out.
Also from my research... "wet" is best for the safety of your engine.

zx bob that is the way I was hoping to do the install, I just wasnt sure if the bottle under the seat, I am leaning towards the muzzy combo kit shifter/nos
Dubious bike looks awesome, do you notice any negative effect in the turns with extended swingarm, and what length is it?
Appreciate the help !!!!!

Thanks,
TRAC 6" arm set at 5".
Less traction feedback, likes to spin sometimes.
Corners good,Not quite as good as stock, but I just put more body weight on the inside footpeg when leaned over,
Its set at 5" over, roads here are pretty straight, like North Dakota straight.
I ran it in the mountains at 5" over this summer, with the pilot sport showing 1/8" chicken strips.
I don't push it too hard though... public roads are too unpredicatble, I like my bike and my skin! 
5" was a good compromise.
Next trip to the mountains, i will run it at 2 inch over though. I like to ride fast and the lack of traction feeback was a little discerning for me.
I have to say, at 6" over the TRAC swingarm is very stout. I can't feel it flex at all.
Sure glad to have it extended when on the juice in 2nd and 3rd gear.
Best compromise for street application would be 2-6" extended.
8-10" would never hook up and would handle like shit.
You'll have enough hose to route the muzzy bottle under the cowl if you want.
Muzzy kit comes with 20oz bottle, which will fit under there.
I wanted to run 2 bottles, since 20 oz only lasts about 20-30 seconds at 50+ HP.
