sport 71, i do have the same and i think you left the stock exhuast spacers on the header, you will need to pull them off to slide the HB's to the base of the of the header or risk lossing one on the fly. they surely look nice. :thumbsup::thumbsup:

The bike is very nice :beerchug: The apperance of the seat could possibly be improved :whistle:

Not trying to highjack the OP, but for the 8 or so trackdays we have here in HI a year on a short runway course the seat on the 07 use to slow me down a bit in transition from side to side by the way the sweep came down (my fat &ss don't help either:whistle:. I went this route for function and it looks a lot better in person. plus i do have the orig seats to put back on for street riding ( which I barely do)

The Megaphone definitely cleans up the appearance of the rear section. The sound is pretty obnoxious though. Might run rich now that you've lost all that back pressure. May want to consider having it tuned with a PC.

I have one on my 08. It cleans up the bike well as stated by others, but I've got to admit, the sound is deafening after a long ride.( to each his own) I have reinstalled my stock cans for now. I'm selling mine to get a full exhaust.

it truly does add character I bet adding the tail mods would make it even better...

I love the way it looks, don't get me wrong, but I started getting a headache after an hour long ride. So I thought I'd rather enjoy the ride with my stock cannons for now.

the seat all it takes is a wipe down with a bit of clear water and that is it, nothing special.
