There's no way of knowing what he had done inside the engine but i see the flat slide carbs , modded stock fame for the mono shock rear that looks like a GSX Katana swingarm . The front end looks like a early 2000 GSXR 1000 . The chambers are custom hydro formed to unknown specs .

I mean- you guys seem to be following this bike around the net- so it must be some shop that is doing this build?

Pity that the only way to hide a third pipe is to do the TR side pipe thing. I want to fit them Walms style but that means they don't fit inside a bellypan - unless I stretch it.....

It would also mean no modern style mono shock as the Walms chamber setup needs that space to get all 3 pipes together on one side . Image

Thanks Dave. I was thinking of the WTF 3 into 3 pipes where he crosses them to get two on one side and one on the other which look even more gnarly.
