Jammer, sorry dude. I have been away for a while.
I have a fire engine red color. I have stripped all the vulcan emblems off and the kawasaki on the side covers. I left the streak decal on the tank because it is under the clear coat.

devildocmongo, instead of removing the baffles in the stock pipes, I recommend buying after market. I have both. I went back to my stock pipes after 3 1/2 yrs and road 2,200 miles with them. That ride was in the mountains and east coast riding. Even though it was quite and enjoyable, I did loose low end torque and horse power. I kept finding myself going over the red line and overspeeding the motor. It's a wonder I did not blow my motor up. Needless to say, I went back to my aftermarket pipes, 2 1/2 in Hard Crome shorties. Got my torque and horse power back and now I just wear earplugs.
I did not need a dyno jet or fuel controller for them. All I did was put the pipes on and the stock computer has made the adjustments just fine. I have almost 30k on mine now.
