Don't worry, he's still alive and well, he just got himself a Road King he couldn't pass up when he couldn't find a 1500 Drifter. What he did to the bike was all the chrome by himself with stainless steel and pipe bending etc. The BEST part for me however is that he made dual side pipes for both sides of the bike...and put Harley mufflers on them! Hahaha. I remember when he got the bike he put some on, then drilled out the baffles and it made it loud! For some reason afterwards, he took those off and put on some really quiet mufflers, still harley brand. Both sets he got from a swapmeet in my area. Well, yesterday we put on the loud ones again and my girlfriend said she could see me smiling from 3 acres away because of how they sounded. Strangely enough....it sounds like a Harley with Harley mufflers. I mean, not exactally...because it's not a Harley but still...makes me wonder. Side-ish note: was Kawasaki the metric that was sued over sound??? It is a single crank pin engine. Anyway...thought that was be fun for y'all to hear!
