^^^ Was thinking that too when I saw the pic...

Tidier, and no shields required. It's good, very good.

yeah, i always thought the reason nobody did low mounts here was that it interfered with the steering box

Since I'm not realy worried about the steeringbox... :P
Lowmounting when twincaming is maby an option I'm going for...
... means a straighter DP if there is room for some descent (4"?) diameter!!! :twisted:

I used to live down there until the earthquakes ruined land and house...
I remember just leaving home and seeing it being towed, I did a u-turn and followed you for a while hoping you were going to pull over so we could talk :D
Was thinking that I hadn't seen it before...
