Akra full system, nice. Is that an oil leak in the bottom pic? My Sato midpipes are turning blue.............but not that blue, dayumm.

Whatever that is on the ground is from the piece of **** rental I'm driving

Full Akra Evo 2, all titanium. I haven't picked up the PC3 yet, but it's coming. Working on buying a new car so cash is tight right now.

I could probably make a short vid if you guys want to hear what it sounds like. I personally love the exhaust, and anyone who has it knows why.

Your bike is beautiful man! That exhaust is an extra touch to it! I wanted the same one for my gixx too, but can't afford it! So you have no problem selling your 05 750? Or did you just trade it on for the gixx 1k?

Trade in... F'd up thing was it sat there for about a whole 2 minutes before it was sold. Damn guy had it sold before I even brought it in to pick the 1K up. And I couldn't even get a hit in 3 weeks.

I like the color scheme on that thing, but I think the pipe is hideous. Needs to be Carbon fiber or something.
