Love that manifold man. One thing I can not do is weld, because I have not got around to learning yet. Makes me jealous, haha. Looking forward to what else you do.

Thank you, but please don't judge me on these welds! Because I'm re-using sections of the dirty stock exhaust my tig weds are getting some contamination, and not looking their best. Ultimately the exhaust will be wrapped so I'm going to let it slide ;). Learning to weld was one of the best investment I've made in myself. When you have the time, pick up a small 110v mig and you'll never look back.

Oh, trust me, I'm not. I'm not one of those people, haha. Function over form is what it comes to in most things.

I believe that. I'm a car guy first and do everything myself (paint, upholstery, bodywork, motor, etc), but I have to bring my car to a friend when it comes to welding. Will do when I have some time. Thanks for the advice.

I like it! Making exhaust became my most favorite thing to make on a bike build. And like you said I couldn't believe how long I waited before getting a mig.

Thanks, I like building exhausts as well. I kind of wish I used stainless now, but as is I'll have a $40 exhaust so I can't complain lol.
 
Seat ready for upholstery.
