Thanks bro! I've put a lot of time and effort into this thing! Updated pix from today right before the first ride, out in the sun.

Yes they are. Old ones had the typical broken tabs in a couple areas and I just didn't want to mess with tweaking it all to line up nice and flush. It's been a bit of a pricy build but worth it to achieve my goal of making it looks as nice, new and clean as possible.

I'd sell it just to build another one but I highly doubt anyone is going to wanna shell out just the cost of the bike and parts I have into it, labor isn't really a factor price wise as this is becoming my newest hobby!

Thanks guys I'm happy with it. Only thing is today after riding I decided to check my plug... Mocha/brown which is good but that new scorpion exhaust well it has maybe 45 min of run time on it and now the end cap and down to the shroud scoop are turning a Brown color aswell?

What's the deal with that? Is it normal or is there some hidden problem I'm having and stuff is getting WAY to hot?
