Hey Fox, yea it's a Pro Circuit Platinum. Pretty stoked on that. Hopefully I can get it shining nicely again. Also no dents in it really, just a small one below the Pro Circuit badge.

Yea :| Do you recon all that spooge is from the o rings on the header being shot? Can I fix that issue with new ones?

Okey cool, I have hammered the living daylights out of the bar mounts with a rubber mallet already. Will try some more :-P
Will make sure to give it some lube when the new ones go on.

Hmmm, no wonder it looked funny on the bike. Will have to get a new one for this model then.

Thanks for the feedback.

if the pipe didn't have the O-rings, then yeah, it'll make that much of a mess....but also remember, there is some issues going on with your carb too...and getting it jetted right. We don't know the condition of your top-end yet either.

You could try some heat on the bar mounts, just be careful...I'd rather see you try some P.B. Blaster penetrating oil first, spray some on and let it sit for a day, then try the rubber mallet again.
It wouldn't hurt to get a set of these billet cones, and get rid of the rubber ones either...

that's 5 steps leaner over the N3YK....as long as the clip is in the middle it will be fine.
I'm running the N3WJ, which is 4 steps leaner over stock, in my '00, with the clip in the 2nd from top comfortably.
