hello all, I thought I'd take a moment to introduce myself and post a few pictures of my project. I purchased this bike new in 1979 and put 34k miles on her in stock "Special" form. After pondering the transformation for years I finally started on it. Had GFTP fabricate the seat, tank and 1/2 fairing for me after looking at his Norton with the same setup. Hand fabricated a kick starter to clear the Terazzi rear sets and currently working on the exhaust install which brings me to a question. I purchased from Mike's XS a set of 1-1/2" Performance XS head-pipes and some Commando mufflers. I made this purchase two years ago when I first started the project and had never gotten around to fitting the pipes to the bike. I find out that the left hand pipe does not run parallel to the frame as the right hand pipe does. I contacted Mike but haven't received a reply. Is he still in business? His website is up, but it appears no one is home. Has anyone installed these pipes and found the same problem? Warren
