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

Tidier, and no shields required. It's good, very good.
Reduce fuel costs by 15-20% & cut emissions by 1/3rd...
Increase engine performance & prolong engine life...
How?

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

Lowmounting when twincaming is maby an option I'm going for...

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...

Nice rims man. They suit it nicely. Did you have to use spacers?
