So, it's loud and obnoxious, rides like crap because of the strapped suspension and has a lot of exposed holes in the body work because of removed components. Not to mention the loss in low end torque because of the drop in back pressure due to the open exhaust. Also, where did the mirrors go?

No thanks.
Opinions vary, yes I know.
yes its loud and its got a nice bounce to it and lots of exposed holes? 6? maybe? ya the power does go away if i just hold the throttle at a certian point but as soon as i get on it the power is back, mirrors are setting on my garage floor

yea i figured it would sound the same. its just like screaming and screaming in a funnel. not gonna change the volume. just where the loudest part is! and by the way if you remove the passenger grab bar you dont need to keep those bolts in?? wow cool maybe ill remove mine too then! its been looking crappier and crappier as the day goes on!
I took my grab bar off too a while ago, it makes the bike look WAY better -- more agressive.
There's a piece of plastic/rubber/whatever if you take it off, the black stuff that seems to be glued to the bike. I was worried it was going to come off, so I made 2 small plates to cover 'em up, and replaced the original bolts. Looks better too
Sory for the crappy picture, it was already dark when I took it. I still have to replace two of the original (huge) bolts (didn't have the right size) and polish the plates, but you get the idea
I'm thinking about getting 2 pieces of aluminum to fill those huge 'gaps', that would probably look even better...
