So there's not much going on any more on this forum at the moment and you are all bored.

So it's not about Superdukes but thought I'd post up a picture of the expansion chambers I fitted to my other bike yesterday. They are hand made in stainless steel, weigh next to nothing and are pretty much replicas of the Dencos they used to sell in the 1970s. Very loud and reminiscent of my teenage years - which is why I got this bike in the first place. Not been out on the SD for weeks but I was out on this all last week on slippery winter roads. Can't keep off it!

Looks great. It also takes me back to my teens. I was running around a Yamaha RD350 while real men were riding commando 850s and Kawasaki triples. I might have scratch that itch

That purple would make a great KTM color.
Can the Kawasaki beat the Superduke in the quarter mile?
Is the top speed higher on the Quack?

The pipes look great. The pipes I had many years ago were always ugly flat black and crazy loud. Just looking at your bike makes me break out in a sweat. Every "H" series Kawasaki that I owned was a wreck that someone else was either injured or killed on. They were the bomb in their day and I always had respect for them and how I ended up with them. I never owned one for long. I patched them up and sold them to feed my addiction for stroked HD Sportsters which I also built up from crashed bikes.

Mate they look awsome and the rest of the bike is doing ok as well.
BTW why is it not acceptable to have reflectors on an SD.......................just sayin.
