Lol, figured go big to have room to grow into! Thats the general idea I've gotten with reviews on these pipes. Any special tips for shinin these pipes up? Or just good ol elbow grease and chrome cleaner/polish? Sorry guys no big updates lately. Been reorganizing alot at work and been cleaning out shop at home. Finally getting heat hooked up! I did send back those led pods and ordered a 14" OPT7 spot/flood bar im gonna run in front of grille instead. Also ordered a clymers manual and some misc stuff to hook a timer high idle switch in my truck. Hopin to do some more things this weekend! And hoooppefully order up a set of fireball arms and roundhouse swinger soon too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well havn't had a chance this weekend yet to work on the bike. Had to finish up some repairs for work and been trying to get moved into my new tool box. I had emailed OPT7 lighting since I received the wrong led lights and will be returning/reordering the correct ones. Just curious, will the factory light switch handle the power load? Im assuming yes in theory I think the led pods would be drawing less current than the factory halogens. But if I were to also add a 6 inch bar for high beam if the high/low switch will handle it so I don't need to order the wiring harness. The pods specs show 1.34 amp draw.

Well got sidetracked and went riding with some buddies today. Weather was just too good to pass up. So i took our 300ex out. Lets just say i have a pair of ass torn jeans and a freshly grinded grab bar for showin off a little too much lol. But got back to the banshee after this evening. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lol. Im not hating man. I've seen some pics before i joined this forum and hot damn some good lookin bikes you've done up. I have seen some arguments but I am in no position to judge anyone on here. I just want to learn and show my build and my knowledge of things. Someday I would like to hit ya up for some custom fenders man Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I thought about runnin a weld all way around but i figured with 6 spot welds it should be pretty dang good. Yes the welds reached the nut. Ran welder a little hotter and got a good bead in the holes! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I have the tendency to over do things. But id rather not be dealing with broken mounts later on. Think ill end it there for today. Everything went smoothly thank god haha. Tomorrow ill get mounts for heel guard tabs done up. Has anyone ordered from JDS customs lately outta curiosity? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Cleaned up a little. Thanks! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ill be running this pipe all the way through the frame. With coupling nuts inside to bolt to. Ground down edges a little for a snug fit In. Welded. And smoothed up a little. In the hole and welded. Not the prettiest but it will be hidden Also had to drill peg mount holes to fit half inch bolts. Mocked em up on frame with bolts and fit washers in between And thats how far i am right now. Gonna clean em up and mount nerfs again.! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

I can make some brackets to mount the rear nerf tabs to. And for the most part today i got em lined up pretty good. The front mounts were pretty straight to the engine motor mounts like you mention. This weekend ill work on it some more! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
-
Interesting.... So im missing brackets than. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
-
Thats what im wondering haha. Is there suppose to be a bracket from original heel guards or am i missin something. Ill dig through my part boxs to make sure I didn't forget something unless i have to make brackets for them? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
-
Alright. I may be goin crazy here. Got nerfs mocked up somewhat decently this evening. Once i get frame fixed this weekend ill be able to really line things up. But heres my question. Where do those rear mounts go? These do look badass though. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Ill take a look and get some pics soon. Just been really busy at work this week. Got mine off amazon for $300. Little spendy but they seem like some pretty solid sexy lookin pieces IMO. Its all good bud. Tomorrow or this weekend I should be able to get my frame fixed for the nerf mounts. Will be posting pics of progress! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Mine being an j arm bike would i be able to run raptor calipers? Or is that for a arm front ends? But you like your streamlines then? Have a pic of them by chance? Yeah, ive seen some posts of people mentioning that. Im not planning anything ridiculous for engine And i dont think kickin off my heel will bother me too much. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Well gettin things cut and smoothed out. Gonna call er quits tonight. Handle nerf mounts tomorrow night. Mounts a bit crooked but just mockin up Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Are you running stock styled 3 hose or went to 2 line from handlebars? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Also got my FXRs today! Even beefier up close. Just cleanin up from work and hopefully mess around with frame a little tonight. Gonna cut brake junction tab, tors tab, and original exhaust mount tabs off. Than see what i can do for mounting the nerf bars. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Yea id definitely like to go to a roundhouse than. Stock length than should work well for a wide variety of riding i do. Ditchs, harescrambles, arenacross, and some sand along the river bank. Well some goodies came today! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Curious on swingarms now. Originally i was thinkin a +2 out back. But have been reading guys like to run shorter for traction and mx racing./jumping. I for sure would like to go to a roundhouse carrier. But forkin up $600+ right now seems steep. Any brands or reliable ebay specials anyone knows of? And trying to decide what length.
