I think you should put the pipe at more of an angle, but it looks great anyway....

I think the little chrome one actually looks better than the megacycle... is there a performance difference?

I agree with Stereo, the angle of the can should match the angle of the duct tail. Stil nice work tho.

Thanks guys,

yep, the pipe has gotta get some more angle to it, but thats a whole other project :wink:

I wanna get this rear end sorted first so I can go for a ride! I secured the tail tonight, tomorrow I have to look at putting in some supports for the seat and mounts for the seat. Add a tail light and I should be good for a spin.

Yep - everything is on and functional. I took it for a test ride and there was no probs with the mods I did, but the carb/plug problems have come back to haunt me again. So it pissed me off and I parked it and havent ridden it again since. I know what it needs to make it run sweet but I just havent had the time lately to finish it off 100%.

Ive had an about face Problemchild.

Since I bought the GSX14, I've reverted the ZXR back to standard. Ive been planning to use it for trackdays but I cant see myself getting back out there for a while and might end up just selling the ZXR if its not getting any use.
