I really like this Roland Sands build. Resembles a Royal Enfield. A hideous insect morphs into a beauty.

Thanks GoldOxide - that was before I had a new exhaust fabricated by a local builder.

Here's a few of his work and some before and after shots. He repurposed most of the header pipes, but lopped off the stock cat and resonator box (which weighs a ton) and built a section with flow through race mufflers.

Ha! The same builder has the CB now and is building an exhaust for that as well, I can't wait to see the finished product.
