pretty cool, Its funny, to me it does not sound like a V 11 sport. I am thinking the sexy, rumbling V 8 like sound of a v 11 sport with a Ti exhaust or some other nice exhaust cans. Still , it looks like it pulls nicely!

Runs well, I usually run a little higher rpms though. I like it!

cool bike!

I ended up with something similar when I converted my Calvin into basically a T3 with carbs.

don't miss the 'joys' of riding in most of England though. Welcome to the land of the continuous conveyor belt of cameras and cars. (And also it's not unheard of for the speed limit to change 6 times in a stretch of 2 mile road, most of them enforced by camera!)

Exactly what I thought. I had a V11 Sport with the Ti cans and loved that sound. Are there any, or what is a good sounding exhaust for a G5, etc.
