Menkel,

Please tell us more about those exhaust cans. Unless I'm mistaken they're not Tail-Gunners. Am I missing something? :-? Are they home-made?

I only ask this because I LOVE THEM!!!!! I WANT THEM!!!!!

Even if they don't spin I WANT THAT LOOK!!!

Thanks in advance.

Hey guys,

I saw you all like my fake tail gunners. I saw the prices of the real tailgunners. F*^&% those things are very expensive. The pipes cost me each 59,95 euro. at http://www.motozoom.nl the rest I made it myself.
The bike isn't finished yet. The seat must be fixed. When the bike is finished I will let you all know. greetz Menkel

Hello Menkel.

Always nice to see a fellow countryman on the site.

Welcome.

Heel mooi gedaan, het lijkt me alleen erg hard zitten, is het de bedoeling dat het zadel nog bekleed wordt??
Lijkt me erg pijnlijk zo.

Gefeliciteerd met een mooi stukje werk.

Well, gents
It is time to learn dutch, there are more dutchmen joining soon, I hope :-D :-D :-D :-D :-D



http://www.motozoom.nl really has some nice stuff.

If you would like me to translate from time to time, just send me a PM

Bart

Thanks for dropping by Menkel , yes excellant job on the tail gunners . beijng a bit of a fabricator , I am going to make a set myself . The cost of ONE is totally outragious . So I am going to look around at what pipes you used and finish them uip likewise . I hope you don't mind me using your idea as I was thinking it myself . But please keep the building pics coming . Your ride looks great . ( Zryder )

VERY COOL Menkel - I really dig the cafe seat you've got on her...... The style really accentuates the beautiful GL1000 engine.
