Craig, you'll probably be one of the first KZR members to see this bike when it's finished. I have a dream of riding pch from Morro Bay to Monterey when this bike is roadworthy. I made the comment because I was still laughing at my attempted witt with mailman nut joke. My wife is wont to say " I think its funny that you think you're funny" :laugh:

Picked up an exhaust yesterday for my bike, but it's not a design I have ver seen. I know Mark has seen one, but it was unidentified in his Header thread. Only problem is that I have to ship if from Canada. As long as the bottom isn't smashed to hell, it should be worth the $50 I paid for it.

Ah yes, the old Whitey Exhaust. Looks nice, once you hit it with some bbq black!

May be a Dick's Cycle West pipe or Graham Sheet Metal both from Cali? You have to be as old as me to remember those oddballs...flipping through late 70's Cycle Guide,Hot Bike mags. etc. would probably help

Thanks Jack. I wonder if Trianglelaguna has ever seen an ad for this Mfg.... I also wonder if I can see the old cycle mags on microfiche at the library..... I want to check on the cost of ceramic coating, AFTER I verify fitment. Stupid Yosh exhaust :angry:
