You guys are pretty hard on two bros. I love mine.

I gotta believe it wouldn't be too hard
If the Dlx dual pipe header fits, you can grab that and fit up cans to match. Since you like the 2bros and have one, get another and get someone to bend up connector pipe to fit
I did it with my Ktm 620...Was going to do it to my 2013, but found a 1/2 priced used staintune in great (like new) shape.. I liked it so much, sound and looks (looks almost OEM, just smaller), I scrapped the idea of dual pipes..
When I got mine '13 the PO had a modern looking yosh can I could of gotten for little $.. I was on the fence about a modern exhust on a retro, which is I think where issue resides.. If one has a mostly stock retro, with a modern can, I think it looks odd..
However, if you do other customization to make it look more like a cafe, or a period race bike, I think they are fine and looks great. At least that's my opinion..
I applaud anyone who is willing to customize and fabricate stuff to make em different..Good luck
And post pics when done

Hi Kik,
Beautiful bike! Can I ask you a few questions about your additional windshield? (Ferret, should I open a new subject? but then how do I refer to Kik's photos?):
What make is it? Is it permanently fixed to the fairing? Are you happy with the protection it provides? Is it easy to adjust?
Side remark : We almost had a revolution here in France last spring when the government increased the dimensions of our licence plates by a few centimeters , but I see we still have a long way to go to equal Russia!

Your bike looks great Kik....do you know what seat that is?

Caseyjones, no need to start a new thread.

caseyjones, Thank you! I bought a motorcycle with an additional spoiler on the fairing (it was installed by the previous owner). I installed the spoiler in the upper position and this really helps me cut off the air flow and .. the insects)
I do not exactly know what kind of spoiler it is, but it's very similar to this one - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d41ZmCJaIK8
License plates for a motorcycle in Russia are really giant))

Cormanus , Thank you! This is not exactly a new motorcycle (he is already 3 years old))). But he is in good technical condition and looks great .. So I bought it recently ..))
