Rivman15 Bikes

Here are some recent pictures of my two. Was looking through some recent posts and realized I never posted finished (minus the black GS chain guard) pictures of the black one that you guys helped me with regarding wiring and carburetors. And Scirocco gets to see the Murray X Pipe on the finished bike.

Sweet looking rides. How do you like the Murray pipe?

Love the Murray Spider pipe on my red bike. I have less than five miles on the black one with the X pipe... incredible sound and power.. It is impossible for a bike guy not to hear it coming down the road as the sound is very different then anything else. I may not be a fan of the brand new K&N air filters on it...seems to be restricting them. I have a set of stacks I will be trying on it to verify it. I was having carb issues and put the bike away last winter shortly after that. Working through the carb issues as we speak. Plan to be riding it much more as the weather breaks here in upstate NY.

 

Do you have a picture of the X pipe from the front?

I have heard that the Xpipe has a unique sound and that there is some controversy about the horsepower claims. I had no idea the company also makes a sidewinder. Cool.
If the filters are over oiled, thy can be a little restrictive.

They are really nice Joe

Very nice bodywork and the engines/exhausts are sweet too!  

Are you running the Red Bike on the strip?  If so, what your times in the 1/8 and/or 1/4?
