S4 Rebuild start to finish

Finally got round to writing up my long rebuild. The idea was to create a moody and dark monster, cafe racer style. After purchasing my stock S4 from Devon for a modest price, 15k on the clock but with a 996 engine conversion. It was very clean as it was a bike mechanics daily ride. I disposed of all the stuff I don't like, headlight surround, bars, seat cowl, hugger and chain guard. Sold these and used the funds to purchase the custom exhaust

Its more or less a straight pipe and my ears bleed. So after the first stage of mods this is what I ended up with

some will say this is how I should have left it and I almost did, but I wanted something unique.
