Good call. That's not something I've even considered. I'm leaning more towards functionality & I really want a little more clearance in the curves. I'm about 15 minutes from the Blue Ridge Parkway in NC...actually about 10 minutes from Rider's Roost Ferguson, where the WHCM is held, so I'll find...

The header wrap has been cut back a little so when the pipes drag a little bit, it hasn't created any problems. I think if I cut the pipes off right under the foot pegs that will give me a lot of leaning-space. If I do away with the 2-1 pieces that may also free up a little space, also. I'm...
