The pipe will let you know it’s there every now and then. Doesn’t bother me at all when I’m in full gear

A full year later. The project continues..... at least it’s a rideable project. I updated the clutch today. Only took one photo. Pretty straight forward. Huge improvement from what I was running, and I shed a few ozs. Still shifts a bit rough sometimes, but there seems to be a sweet spot. Next step, I’m changing the rear sprocket and the suspension. The back shocks are bit too long. There’s too much flex on the swing arm. I’m thinking that’s contributing to the shifting issues. The 30 tooth sprocket isn’t helping either. The combination of the two has created a chain clearance issue that will be corrected.

I’m pretty stoked on it. A couple little tweaks hear and there. I’m going to add on a few engine mods and rip it
