Nice job of installing two rear heads.  Are you running a 5 speed?

Turk, these bikes are never finished.  That is one of the joys of building them.  We always find ways to make them better or just to do things different.  Good luck and we will see you at BUB.

Sweet shovel! :cheers:

Good luck!
With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly overhead. -- RFC 1925

You can't make a race horse out of a pig. But if you work hard enough at it you can make a mighty fast pig. - Bob Akin
