I never understand why guys put sidewinder pipes on street bikes. The pipe sticks way out, plus the bike is raked and lowered so right side ground clearance is very limited. I would look for a replacement before you drag that pipe too hard in a corner and crash.
This is very true!!!! That bike is intended for straight line riding. It is a highway bike. This bike will not be the best for inner-city riding or will not be much fun on back windy roads.

It rides rough and the steering sucks I have another frame that came with this bike that I will be transferring over the parts to during the winter.
