Yeah, but why not just use the metal stock ones? I mean the plexiglass don't really look better and the weight savings is almost negligible.

Maybe he wanted the clear look, like those lexan rims... I have cf heel guards because I like the way they look. He was basically cool with me until the holes in the frame. Everything he did to his bike prior, including the goofy exhaust, isn't THAT radical and has been used on other bikes.

Where do idiots like this get enough money to afford nice motorcycles?

From looking through his flickr photos, this guy was all about weight saving and aerodynamics. He has pics of weighing his turn signals vs. stock ones, weighing his plexiglass heel guards vs. stock, weighing his exhaust vs. stock, etc. And I agree, yeah, his stuff is cheesy, but nothing majorly wrong with it until cutting holes in the frame.

Apparently you forgot the 4 air cleaners he used claiming he can now go 56,000 miles between changes and the exhaust that looks like an oil funnel.

Not surprised.

Nope. There are a couple companies that make a very similar exhaust... Hot Bodies comes to mind and VooDoo....oh and when I was younger, taking off the air box and installing individual pod filters was all the rage. Not the same thing but you never know what crazy idea will work without trying it. Nos, water injection, etc...

water and meth injection comes to mind when i think of shit that seemed crazy but works
