First of all +1 for the disk setup up front....I realy realy think that this bike needs disk brakes.

Apart from that, the custom exhaust pipes need a bit of chrome I think.

Kick-ass bike

Nice job mate! Are those altered rx pipes? Very neatly executed job. The rear tip looks like that of the US spec pipes.
How good are the front brakes? I see you have used the master cylinder of an indian bike and split it to work both the calipers. That will drastically effect the braking making it slow and spongy!
What probs are you having with the tacho?
I use mico WR5BC/W5BC on all the RD's.

no its not the rx pipes........ its completely coustom made. (by mr. sunil one of my friend)
yes he made as per us spec pipes........

brakes are fine
i used pricol cylinder of bullet electra then it goes right side disk then one copper pipe welded banjo end goes on left side

but the prob with this mod. cluch gone very smooth not hard. but i think
......"its better then hard brakeing on my electra bullet.."

my tacho dosent go more then 125 afeter that strike of techo goes vibrate .. but i will managed with mounting a new additional digital meter which is used in cycles....

the prob with my rpm meter is that its shows 1000 rpm up down and one low noice comes from it....

i fited ngk bpr7hs plugs on both sides.

mr atul suggest me one person who repairs meter someware in andheri...

thanks alllllllllll..........
