I'M IN THE GRIP OF FULL BLOWN SHOVEL FEVER . . . . AS THE KICK-OFF TIME FOR PROJECT SHOVELLER DRAWS CLOSER, I'M SPENDING MORE TIME ON THE DROOL . . . . THIS OLD CONE JIGGER IS PRETTY FREAKIN SWEET, BUT IT WAS THE PIPES THAT HAD ME FROM 'EXHAUST'.

EVERYTHING IS SUBJECT TO THE 'FORM FOLLOWS FUNCTION' ADAGE . . . . IT AIN'T NO PIPE DREAM BABY !!

I really want the pipes on the Shovelhead chopper/bobber/flopper/hopper to be something super cool and special, been contemplating the segmented/sectioned caper for nearly two years, still hoping to have some done in titanium for the Purple Penis as well, the entire feel of this kind of system is such a killer look . . . . nothing turns me on more than gorgeous welding, especially of the hand fabbed variety and when it's S/S, alloy and titanium even moreso. The exhaust system on this choppy bobby gives me the horn, in Seppo Speak, a perfect row of quarters, also the fact they're so tightly tucked in and outta the way . . . . and the bike's pretty bloody tidy too, built by Evolution Custom Industries in Sydney, right here in Orstraya !!!

  1. Titanium pipes would cost me more than my bike,whatever this scoot would be nice to see in the flesh...
    I also consider new exshaust but i think in the range of paugcho 2 in 1 with small cut off fishtail..
    been outa work for nearly 2 years so i have to keep the cost down which is ok but you have to make some compromises...good luck with the shovel i think i,ll still sell mine and get a kawa!!
