    I was following what you were doing on facebook to and this article is really good. Very nice job you did and the pipes look great. You do more work on your bike than almost all the guys I know here. Like I said great job. :)

    Thanks. No test ride yet. Had to do homework. I have an appointment at noon to get my nails done (I'll never get the grease and oil out from under my fingernails on my own - need that dremel tool they use), so I'll figure it out then. I've ridden it around the ranch. So far, so good.

    Thanks guys. Now that I've got all the web hosting bs settled, the link is no good. I just started reselling hosting as part of my business and have been :witsend: getting it all worked out. I wrote that piece in the middle of it, and it's been driving me crazy!

    New link, in case anyone cares at this point:

    Are you talking about "Biker Chick Magazine" ? I can't get a look at it with your link.
