Where to start?
« on: April 18, 2015, 02:46:51 pm »
Hopefully in the next few days I should finally have the forward controls fitted, then all that's left is to wrap the ss customs real deal pipes. What end is it best to start from when wrapping them?

Start at the back working your way forward, then the laying will be more aerodynamic.
Be safe and Bolt on.

Did you ever get that over-sized bolt to go in?... and if so , how? (Glad to hear you're winning the battle)
