You know, outside of this being a very cool and very affordable mod, I have to say here that Jeff (metalmaven) is about the nicest guy you'll ever deal with, too.

Ordering mine shortly.

Any word on a back rest from anyone? My wife can't take more than 30-40 minutes on the back as it stands now, but any existing backrest options in the wild are pretty terrible.

I finished a backrest prototype and will be kicking out a few with improvements later on. At this rate I am guessing in the spring but could be sooner.

What we need next is for you to go to Cone Engineering and grab the stainless steel 18" Quiet Core muffler, the 18 degree mandrel bent tube section, and then weld and finish them into custom CB1100 exhausts...

I was looking at that site a couple months ago.. Making a custom exhaust is on the list bro! Not sure when, but this bike is just a little too quiet and that would be a fun project!

G'day and welcome Hatred66. Not sure your first post matches your handle in tone, but your avatar's impressive and metalmaven says you're a sweet man.

Why not pop over to the New Members section and introduce yourself?
