Yea, riding your wife.... say "Hi" to my kid next time you see him. He's 4 now, and can probably post a photo for you if you ask him nice... he's 50% American, not handicaped with 100% Kiwi blood like you.

ya the brass looks like hell, and id never put that on my bike..
but i cant see anything wrong with the copper elbows, they look clean, thinner/less bulky/stronger than aluminum
but they dont match

oh no
with the copper setup you could get away with way less tank modding,
if i get an natural acerbis i prolly get some copper elbows too so i can go easy on the tank
and does the acerbis stick up more? nutbuster? anyone have pics?
so did he just unthread the honda barbs, and jam the copper in and silver solder?????
or is there more to it?
thanks

This question pops up an awful lot. And since I am already writing procedures for work, I'll do a a write up with pitchers - just for you!

1. Note location of pictures on hard drive. e.g. c:\pix

2. Open web browser; go to site: www.tinypic.com

3. Click upload now

4. Browse to location on hard drive where pix exist; select picture and click open.

5. Enter Code and click upload now.

6. Select (Highlight) IMG Code for Forums & Message Boards and Copy (CTRL-C)

7. And paste code into your post here...

Then click Upload more to continue to next picture.
This is geared towards tinypic - which is great for random one pic here and one pic there posts - but if you're going to post a lot, I suggest opening a free account at photobucket.com and start uploading there. You can do bulk uploads and don't have to enter in any stupid codes.

Let me know if this was helpful to you.

Bob, if you don't have one already, you want to make a sticky for this?

you must have your bike spray painted chrome or anodised with as many monster stickers that you could fit

monster stickers and anodised gas cap

2strokeforever · Post by **2strokeforever** » October 16th, 2010, 6:16 pm

bigred1977 · Post by **bigred1977** » October 16th, 2010, 6:20 pm

bigred1977 · Post by **bigred1977** » October 16th, 2010, 6:25 pm

yeah man vm44,yeah cpi,yeah works bloody well actually,cuts most things down in a straight line,pretty aggressive bike,cad ported and head profiled matched a couple of sections in the cpi to the port map configuration,had to do the bigger airbox and manifold as it was rather strangled,but overall its the complete package,vortex makes it pretty adaptable too....but dig away fellow hoons

2strokeforever · Post by **2strokeforever** » October 16th, 2010, 6:28 pm

I just keep looking at the hokey coolant crossover hoses.... and the skid mark the front tire left on the pipe.

And you call my bike ghetto?
