Thanks! Very happy with the shifter. Here is todays progress.
Master cylinder is installed and the brakes are bled. The exhaust system is done. I used a dynomax vt muffler. It uses a spring loaded flap which increases back pressure at low rpm, very similar to the factory R1 header, and opens as rpm increases. Also reduces noise and droning at lower cruising rpm. I have heard that these mufflers sometimes rattle as the valve opens and closes but according to the manufacturer, it is brought on by a lopey idle, which the bike engine does not have. The car will look mostly stock but I think the the 3" exhaust may give it away!
