what the fuck is this, amateur hour?
wrap your fucking pipes. it stops chips, reduces heat, increases HP (slightly), and looks better than chrome. traps moisture? are you fucking retarded? go run your bike for an hour and grab the pipes. tell me how much moisture is on them. fucking retards.
RIPS, are you trying to decide between an 883 and a 48? It's the same fucking bike homie. one has 10 more HP and a bigger front tire. its like trying to decide between a dick in the ass or a dick in the mouth. either way you cut it you're buying a showroom floor dudester. pretty cool rides. super original. unique.
BUY OLD BIKES AND BUILD THEM.
