I haven't gotten a chance to Polish or even detail it since I got it dirty at pismo right before putting the plastics on, all I had time to do was rinse it off.Going to order some stainless steel shrouds, and one or two other things sometime this week.

It is an esr centermount pipe, the silencer exits right through the frame rails. And yes, the plastics are for sale, not my bike. The pics are working now.. i think they just got too many views before my hoster refreshed.

less chance of the silencer getting dinged up and its lighter and easier to work on;)

hehe
Actually it makes the pipe/silencer an overall of 12" shorter, so the exhaust exits a lot sooner, and the bike runs MUCH cooler. And the cooler the engine, the more power it makes. The centermount version makes 2 hp more in the low end over the standard version, and like 3hp more on the top end as well.
I was just on the street infront of my house an hour ago wheelying it in 6th gear:eek2: :D

Yep. I'm going to guess that you figured it out by the fins? Did you catch the 2 door hard top though?:devil:
My uncles.. 383 stroker.. and the other usuals, holleys, flowmasters. I wished it were mine, cause he doesn't actively rebuild it, he will do something to it and then let it go without change for a year. Plus he doesn't wrench on it himself, which to me would be the entire point of it. It's my inheritance from him, so I hope he keeps it lol.
