in the interest of full disclosure ... oops!

Routing the pipe down and back I found that I had goofed. The cross bar supporting the back of the fuel tank was in the way of the radius on the top exhaust pipe. I could have just run it lower, but then the pipes would be a lot further down than I wanted. Solution: break out the cut off wheel and trim that out of the way. I will need to remove the tank again and put an L shaped piece in there after I get the rest of the exhaust run back between the tank and the rear spring. Always some niggling little thing to brighten the day.
