Congratulations! Has your wife chosen a color yet? The only thing I would change would be the drag exhaust…. I’m no expert, but from my understanding you’d get a bit more power with a crossover pipe. Should be able to pick a stock one up dirt cheap. My old 883 is running the stock pipes with some old Cycle shack slip ons and love them.
@charlesprice7608

Actually the stock header and balance pipe and the screaming Eagle slip ons make the best exhaust system for the money. I would think cycle shack is close to what Harley slip ons are. You can do better but it will cost you much more.

@@davidnorris5675 yes, definitely. Unless your spinning that thing up over 7,500rpm. Under that you make more power with some back pressure/scavenging that you lose running drag pipes.

If there would be one word to describe you, it probably would be modestly. And although you are modest, and keep excusing yourself towards your audience, you are one serious handyman and you create out of random parts an entire fine running motorcycle... I am very glad you are how you are, instead of being just another screaming airhead, of which, especially on KZitem, there are many unfortunately. You are the exception whom makes it worthwhile to go see video's on KZitem. Say Corey, have you ever seen Footage of Noraly on the KZitem Channel of Itchy Boots on KZitem ..? Watch season 6 just to get to know Noraly. This Channel also makes it worthwhile to go and see Video's at KZitem :-)

Great job on the bike.👍👍👍 I also wanted to thank you for that old carb rebuild video you put out awhile back. Over the years I've done at least a hundred carbs, and I had to rebuild the carb on my 97 WideGlide a couple of days ago. After 50yrs of wrenching, I was looking forward to doing it as much as I'd look forward to an enema, and in my enthusiasm I completely overlooked the idle jet. I especially like the way float bowl screws are made out of some type of lead that distorts when you put a Phillips even near one. Anyway, I watched your video and felt like a dumbass before I tore it down again. Thanks, and good luck with the bike. 👍
