Wow....that was one pathetic picture after another, until I saw the dog watching the welding from about three feet away. That kid is an idiot. I can't beleive that during all that """fabrication""" he never once thought, "hmmm, maybe the stock exhaust wasn't so bad afterall"
Dam that is funny. not to mention welding above the cabinet full of chemicals and other explosives!!

ok so I also thought how bad can it be? but then looked and yikes hese a nut case in all respects. takes off weight with good intention but then adds on double the pounds of patch and hardware. got to give him a ten for follow thruogh. poor dogs eyes. at least hes giving the kid a hump in the leg for it.... I also think he someday wants to be a welders helper on a chrysler K frame line. LOL

this is one of my favorite comebacks by a poster defending him "Don't hate on a diy'er. Why help out a overpriced vendor when you can do it yourself"?
this is the pitfall of DIY on tv shows..they make it look easy.. i am a contractor/remodeler..some of the stuff these homeowners try to pass off as accpetible...is laughable at best..and dangerous most often at worst..

Was any bailing wire involved? If not, it's not true fabrication! Man what a hack job. I could just imagine the laugh that would erupt in the tech line at an AMA race when that thing rolled up... Jamie, how would yo like to be running next to that guy at road atlanta down the back straight. Waiting for that exhaust can to make an exit... SHEESH!

After looking at all those pic's of garbage I haven't laughed that hard in month's, I just feel sorry for the dog,,,for having burnt up eye's and then telling his friend's,, that is my master,jeeeze.
Light travels faster than the speed of sound,,,this is why some people seem bright untill you hear them speak.

That thread will become epic - I guarantee it!
...I think your on to something there, because there thread mentioned they only had 4700 views in the last month & its jumped to 10,xxx in one day, & picked up 16 members. Some one compared it to Punked & Jackarz, an attention getter for there site. ...What busted my gut was about the lost muffler, "your exhaust didn't fall off, pretty sure it committed suicide".

I fully realize that by simply viewing the thread... That I am now dumber for it through osmosis.
I have lived long enough to realize that violence is rarely the solution to a problem. But I really think a good punch in the head might be just what is needed here. Coupled with a 100 decible remonstration on why he should never reach for a tool of any kind again.

So true. And his bike and his dog have something in common: Severe bad-luck to have him as an owner... run away dog, run away.

They have seem to become aware of the animal cruelty issue and have whacked the pics or the owner has edited the content.There are a few other bike sites that have crucified him for welding in front of the dog.I got to view a few images before the site crashed or it was deleted Gus
I just lost about 10 points in IQ after viewing some of the thread and there is still a picture of the dog there while welding .

Well, we all know there's always someone faster.
This just proves there is always someone slower too.
I always was split between admiring the engineering in crotch rockets and believing they were created to enhance natural selection.
I say this guy is wasting his time with that little bike, let's get him a proper modern liter bike- around 350-400 lbs and 180hp sound about right to anybody else?
sounds good, but no helmet
