How did you go about getting them machined? Did you take the stock header to the machine shop or did you take measurements and send them measurements and pictures?
The quality of the leather and craftsmanship looks the best I have ever seen. True work of art! I wander how the comfort of these are compared to corbin or Russell daylong seats.
Some more info from RSD.

Did multiple dyno runs with and without velocity stacks, v-stack screens and exhaust end caps. The bike was very sensitive to changes. It liked v-stacks, without screens and exhaust without end caps the best. 10 HP difference between all of the combos.
See dyno...
The plugs I was refering to are the Servo Buddy modules for the exhaust flapper once removed will trip a check engine light unless you plug in servo buddy modules. But their is nothing else that needs to be done as far as tricking the ecu or anything and it won't trip a check engine light for...

Perfect fueling, all the time! The BMW R18 comes equipped with wideband oxygen sensors stock which fully target fuel at every throttle position. Once setup, the bike is running an “auto” tuner all the time! Never needing custom adjustments for...

I watched the installation video and attached a couple photos of what appears to be in fact an h-pipe connecting the 2 sides together similar to the setup of the R nine T exhaust.
Does anyone know where to get the flanges that mate the exhuast to the engine heads? I am going to fab my own exhaust but can find the flange to weld onto the piping.
