I think the mud daubers might like to infiltrate the mufflers, a bit like rodents can nest in the airbox?boxertwinjeff wrote:Sorry not with you?She'llbe wrote:In my neighborhood those mufflers/silencers would be called mud dauber motels
Bike looks fantastic and I'll bet it sounds good up thru the hills as it travels up and down the rev range.

Re: PICTURE OF YOUR BIKE/BIKES
Need some help here guys, where exactly should the leading edge (headlight cut out ) of the fairing fit?

Re: PICTURE OF YOUR BIKE/BIKES
I believe the /5 had a smaller diameter headlight than the /6 -> ?
Same size as the R65, I think.
/5 riders would install a R65 reflector/ring to get a halogen light easily, IIRC.
