Paint turned out real nice. I want to do some pinstripes down the road. This is the final update till December probably. I am putting the projects into storage until i can get a garage sorted out.

That paintwork looks awesome.

Do you have any info on the pod filters you've gone for? They look like dual pod ones?

Those look like K&N's. If I were to have pods, I'd have them.

I agree with Steve, they look like K&N filters to me. I went with velocity stacks and filters to cover 2 stacks.

Yes they are K&N filters. A member on here had Wompy at Still Kicking Moto make him these velocity stacks that insert into the two filters.

There is a thread here on the design, also when i talked to Wompy he had a few sets left. Its possible he still has some...
