My Marauder is under the knife right now

My Marauder is in the shop for the Naake suspension, Kooks and SPA dual digital gauges. I just talked to my mechanic and he said the headers were a complete **** to do. His "Nemesis" was the words he used. The stage 8 locking header bolts were also high on his **** list. I printed off the various install threads for him to look at and he said they helped a lot, but still 8 hours, no joke.
He also had some questions about the Naake suspension and he got in touch with Joel himself to answer them.

I just had the mech hold up his cell phone to the pipes, sounds good!

Picking it up tonight.

Cool, man!

Now that's what I call a good mod!

Its got a deep controlled sound now. Wide open sounds way louder than stock. But lower down its not nearly as loud as I feared it would be, it gives an expensive sounding hum on the highway and if you back off it sounds stock. Gives a nice burble on decel from higher rpm.
The suspension is great too, so far a much nicer ride than 3/4 coil cut off stock. Some pics to come.
