Are they pink and black ??? or is that a reflection ?

Adidas - you make these from scratch ... or take stockers and laser cut em ? I think chromed steel is a nightmare to laser cut ... water jet ?

Cool.

I think these are ones that Adidas buys from somewhere across the pond, IIRC.

Across the pond where they drive on the wrong side of the Road. They make them from stainless steel from scratch.
They look cool and Mary needed something special to celebrate graduating when riding Flick.

Flick got more goodies today too! He got the V&H exhaust from HarryPotter. Now Addiasguy do you have the proper jet kit for that exhaust that I could buy from you? Or know where I can get a good deal!

Thanks,

Mary

No jet kits. I didn't do a rejet when Junior git a V&H. however, i DID jam in a Jardine silencer because it was so loud. The silencers are becoming available again. Still loud, but no longer unbearable. The restriction of the silencer probably made the existing jetting OK.


Pictures? Please?

These are the Pics Harry Potter had up. I'm probably going to do like I did the stock exhaust. I cleaned up the pipes really well and painted with some High Temp engine paint. I couldn't resist for $160 just need correct jetting.

Hold on Yamahon - I remember sending her some jet related parts ...
It may be easier than you think ... if one of us can remember what ...

Any chance you remember Mary ? or the cramming of the books pretty much clear out everything else ...

OK Your name is Mary ... we are the GS500 people and some of us even have some motorcycle of some type somewhere that may even work ...

Now remember there were tiny little numbers on some brass bits I sent you about 1-2 years ago.
What are those numbers.

Cool.
Buddha.

The Airfilter. is a stock K&N. I took a quick look in my old Haynes where I think I wrote my current settings down I'm at 132 50 and 120. Can't be for Certain. Buddha think I've got a 132.5 . In my box it looks like I've got a couple of 20, 142.5, 135.5. I think it was a quick look. I'm exhausted.

Today was a long fun day!  BTW Yama I still have that PC tower with no hard drive if you'd like it. I'd just have to scrape up some money for shipping.
