    Is it getting ANY easier darty? Or is it still a struggle? Figured you'd be getting good at it soon since all your pipes look great.

    Thanx!

    Yeah, got this pipe stuff nailed.

    Just lengthy process. Biggest issue right now is time to work on bikes.

    Getting there but not much bike time.

    Made silencer yesterday and tack welded everything up.

    Made couple adjustments so tip of boot doesn’t hit silencer.

    Thanx! I prob won’t be on here as much. I am working 12 hours a day. Plus driving an hour each way.

    Just can’t get anything done on bikes. I did spend last weekend and this weekend getting the snail pipe welded up.

    Just need to wire wheel it then blue it up.

    Happy New Year guys!
