That looks awesome Pete,
Sounds great too.

I love the fold down lights - That is going to save them from lots of beatings

I know how much sill damage gets done to our trucks and looking at your mufflers they are
going to get a beating ... or is sill / muffler protection still to come ??

I'll youtube some sounds off it later this week. I don't think it's legal. It's a bit loud. I'd like to get a balancing tube fitted to it yet. That'll help things..
Sill damage? Hey if it gets damaged (which it will), no worries, it'll get fixed. I could get steel plates made for protection I guess..Then again. Tracks here in the south aren't as nailey as they are up north (so I'm told).

N the lights are setup like that in case I roll it....again. :roll:

Once it's ready for off road (I'm not an impatient little up start), don't worry fat boy, it'll get a hard time. It might be my everyday runner. But I can still use it for off roading n hunting. AND burn off those rice burners from the lights. Lets see any other street legal beast do that.

(farken YEAH!! that's what I'm talkin about)

Dude, that sounds great. Don't change that exhaust note at all. Did the balancer pipe quiten it down?

It's back to the sound I originally had. I'm stoked.
Running a twin pipe system (without a balance tube) really does sound crap (as skid pointed out). The balance tube installed today made a shit load of difference. It's made it sound deeper, a little quieter and defiantly smoother. :D :D :D
