Dale,
That's a pretty nice looking bike, the exhaust is beautiful
but...yeah, not sure about going under the carbs like that...seems
like a heat shield or something might be in order. Going to get pretty
hot in there in traffic. Shame about the location of the clutch cable,
otherwise they could have kept the pipes clear of the carbs. Someone's
got some time and talent into those pipes though.

BFD builds a nice solid race bike. You could do way worse. The vert is
a tough engine and that bike should provide a lot of racing with few
worries.
