    Nice work!

    As usual, your work is just beautiful. The combination of your efforts and the lines of the Zeitler will make for one gorgeous FV when you are done. Hope to see it some day.

    Very distinctive sound

    The Zeitler headers do sound very different, but I wouldn't say they sound like a Harley. I would say the original, rules required, 4 pipes sould more like a Harley than the Zeitler's. The most...

    I agree Mark

    My point was that bringing classes not FV based into the arguement is not constructive.
    Their priorities for chossing their tires do not apply.
