Turn signals are integrated into the license plate frame and just below the bottom triple tree on the front wrapped around the fork legs.
Link pipe done, need to do a new bracket and replace the clamp. It's running a 0.5 AFr leaner everywhere, and feels much better, Dyno in 4 hours to test results.
I'll probably send this link pipe off to a shop to reproduce in stainless using a mandrel bender before coating. 18 degrees was the magic bend number. Lines up just right with all the other drag prone pieces but won't be the first thing to touch down.
I really love the R-55 can, small yet super functional. Gentle riding is very reasonable noise level, less than Jardines, but like when it's on a sportbike, when you rev it up it takes on a whole new tone. Like have an exhaust flapper valve without the complexity.

The CES wasnt touched, still 100% stock, just slip the CES muffler on and shes back to full CES system.
The good news is it gained torque between 3500 and 5000, sounds much better, and gained about 7 horse up top. The bad news is a tiny bit of torque lost below 3k, don't care. This was with it pulling between 13.8 and 14 AFR, so its definitely leaner than before but still a flat AFR across the board, meaning it just flat out flows better, and doesn't introduce any weird sonic reversion.

Rob,
The link pipe looks terrific.
The new clamp will complete the sano look.
I'd try to rip the Japanese writing off for a cleaner look.
Good news about the performance gain.
Are you still suspect of the lobe centers?
