Looks awesome... can't wait for the first start video

Dude. Your bike looks great, that exhaust came up aces and your photography is bloody terrific. I’m raising a cider in your general direction.

Missed this somehow, just went through the whole thing....awesome man!

Great job on the Supertrapp.

I'm anxious to hear that 400/4 running w/ a Superrtapp. I've heard them on twins and singles (My GB500 had one.) but never on a four. They've got a distinctive sound for sure.

Corey, the Black Knight has a 4” x24” SuperTrapp installed. Belladonna has 4x19”. She's getting real close to ready.
Considering what it is, she's got a pretty deep and quiet tone.

Vid of the Black Knight. (Best played over real speakers)

Excellent job on cleaning the exhaust!

 

[ridesolo]

Yep, sounds very nice.

If I keep the Hedgehog I’d strongly consider selling off the CL pipes and replace w/ a low 2-1 w/ a Supertrapp.

I think you'd get way better performance, especially since you bored it out, with the 2into1 Supertrapp.

Several months ago there was a pretty decent looking MAC for a 360 on eBay for very reasonable. Probably shoulda got it, but I didn't. There's a certain "charm" to the CL pipes. When I started the build there was less of a distinction between a Café and a Tracker, etc. Not sure how much it really matters, 'cuz ya build it as you want it, right? However I can now "see" (in my mind's eye) the Hedgehog w/ low roadracing type pipes and the CL pipes on somebody's Tracker.

The MAC 2-1 is kinda cheap-o... I had one on my old 360 and HATED it. I ended up with extended CL pipes and Emgo Shorties on it and that worked out pretty well. Got another friend with a similar setup and his 360 rips. (for what it is.)

Yeah, MACs had that reputation. I doubt that there's much else available for the 360 though. (Sorry to hijack your thread, Eric.)

Never a problem my man, interesting reading. Now you guys got me thinking...
After I install the 378 kit (complete and sitting on the shelf ready to toss in)

Maybe go dual Supertrapps on Cherry Bomb!!!

Ha! You want interesting reading, check out my last post on the Hedgehog thread; I have to take off my shoes n sox to do math like that and it makes my brain hurt!

Sure, why not? You've gotten into making everything so durn pretty lately though, once you take the old Cherry Bomb down that rabbit hole it'll end up coming out the other end a completely different animal!

Stock swing arm and disc brake for starters. haha.

hell yeah

That looks seriously good. Do you paint the base then add decals and clear coat over them? I'm considering doing my fuel tank with rattle cans and already ordered the spraymax 2k clear, just wondering how to do the decals.

Yes, Paint base, add decals, burnish them as smooth as possible. I got some small air bubbles under mine...sucks as they show through. Then clear. After 24 hours the Spraymax can be wet sanded. 1000-1500-2000 then polished. I used Meguires 105 then Ultra polishing wax.

Looks great. I love the SprayMax clear, such great deep shine. Nice work.
