I'm a better fabricator than a Web master!!!! Now that I have figured out how to share some pic....I will. Please excuse all typos and spelling errors now and in the future. I slept that day in school.

What exhaust are you using there?

It started off life as a '94 FMF Fatty. I cut the welds and rotated it some, shortened the tail section so that it could be removed easily. To make it all fit op to the stock Cr500 silencer I built a mid pipe just as the 450 had. Sorry for the long winded explanation. Its a one off.
Don't just float through life, make waves!

Man all of the bikes are really nice, I like the one with the red steely frame, the pipe clears the kicker with ease NICE!  Service Honda should sell their K5 pipes like that one.

I have to add to the list of compliments.
I personally like the way that JFAB`s pipe looks .
I like the way it is high compared to the way of AJ`s, no offence to the man.
I`m sure that both perform like a dream but I just love that look.

I too missed that day in school and might have skipped a few more, so sorry for the speeling.
I think I get the job done thou. :wink:

Hats off to all the builders of the AF 500s.

Totally bitchen!

I agree with the pipe comment! JAFABs design looks like it allows you to take the mag cover off without having to pull the pipe off too!

Lookin good, I think havin a nice alu frame would look the dogs with retro stickers/seatcover etc like holeshot's working on. If I'm not mistaken, I think the red framed 500peri framer is BDI's, and it looks the business.Mine's gonna be part modern part retro when it's done, looks sweet if you do it right.Some nice bikes there.Good work. :-D
And lo, I did loft the front wheel and carried it forth to the unbelievers, and cast it down before them and said unto them ''look now upon the might of my throttle control ye pitiful cretinous ones''
And the unbelievers did quake in their boots....
