Way to go Vinnie! Let us know how the 600cc kit works.
Did you install it yourself? I'd been thinking in getting the 515 bolt on for mine.

What bars are you using?

You had to open the case bore to put the 600 on right?

Nice Jim. The carb set up is a nice touch too.
Did it get a good response at the show? I'm thinking she must have!

Vinnie looks great . Jim, Kool. Snows almost gone only 2 ft or so still left in the yard. Time to start working on the bike. Cant ride it for a bit anyway as I just got out of the hospital after a weeks stay but healing up good. Had to have my insides fixed. Breathing and eating will be better after this is all healed.
I was thinking (no it did not hurt) Too bad one of the build off / OCC type shows could not be doing something with the thumper engine.

I finally took some time to work on that front chin spoiler idea again - its nowhere near 1.5" of clearance but I think I like the basic shape (more than the last one)

BTW, beautiful bike Jim - looks like a ton of hours went into that masterpiece!

Rockbiter1, well I still have to figure out the mounting and clearance - not to mention I have to actually buy the exhaust system! lol (I've been looking at other systems due to cost - but I still like the pro series look and reliability)
-so I may not get a prototype done till summer (unless I'm too busy riding, lol)

anyone have any problems running the pro series intake? I've read that the carb needs external bracing support after losing the stock airbox

Steve, I use a surface model program called Rhinoceros, it's really easy to use for quick models (like this one)

the snow is finally melting here! (and at an incredible rate)
and I just got my front fender in the mail - I never realized CF could be so beautiful!

Vic, did you remove the nameplate from the V&H exhaust? ( I can't see a logo anywhere - or am I just tired?)

Zero,

The V&H logo is on the other side (left side). As soon as I figure out how to post a bigger picture without exceeding the limit I'll post a close up.

Hey All,

I should be posting some more pics by tomorrow of my progress, Would have posted them a few days ago, but couldn't find the camera. I have the left side built up now and starting on the finishing touches for the rear section. Got my V&H exhaust in yesterday (Ebay) and have the pro series intake on the way (Thanks DAVES).

This is Gavin's from down under's bike (he bought and brought over 4 Blasts to sell and build up from) - the details are very well done, and though I'm no fan of chrome - this is a well done example of using chrome to accent and not overwhelm the looks of a bike - lol - bet you thought I'd never say that - lol
