Below are pics of the first Drummer CF. It's going into testing now. We have to be absolutely sure it will hold up under the heat and vibration before we start shipping. It's 5 1/2 pounds total and has 7 layers of carbon in the stress areas. This thing is the real deal! Performance should equal the Drummer SS as the internal design is the same. Eat your heart out boys; I get to test the first one.   Jon_s Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 07:58 pm:        That has to be one of the prettiest pipes I've seen. Nice work Kevin.   Voltage_vector Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 07:58 pm:        very nice...any estimate on what the cost will end up at?   Mattl Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 08:06 pm:        Wow! That is beautiful! Also interested in cost estimate. I assume this won't be able to be used as a jack point?   Mikexlr650 Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 08:14 pm:        screw the jack point! that thing needs to be mounted on the wall with some haligens(sp?) pointed at it!   Tommy_k Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 08:16 pm:        Looks awesome. Nice work guys. TK   Bake Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 09:14 pm:        We don't need no stinking jacking points!   Skyguy Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 09:25 pm:        I think I just wet myself................   Superbee24 Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 09:42 pm:        WOW   Kds1 Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 09:58 pm:        I'll try to get a cost together in the next few weeks so bear with me...it turned out great and the pics do it no justice....chain tensioner and billet sprocket cover pics next week....hope to have this stuff ready to go after the shootout is over... Kevin www.kdfab.com   Buellshyter Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 09:58 pm:        It's a work of art!!   Devilbuell Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 10:24 pm:        the wait is worth it, put me on the list.   Torch Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 11:06 pm:        SICK!!!!!! Kevin your a bad bad man.   Xbalex Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 11:10 pm:        OMG that thing is AWESOME!!!   1stbuell Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 11:47 pm:        ma ;dsf/lkjfd:LSa Oooops! I just fell of my chair!   Typeone Posted on Thursday, April 13, 2006 - 11:55 pm:        gorgeous! can't wait to see it mounted up!   Skeeter_xb Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 01:09 am:        Kevin, You're products have come along way since I bought one of the original Drummer's 2 years ago. That thing is stunning. I haven't heard from Bubba in about 5 months, since when I saw him at the Bloomington HDB shop while we were having a BRAG meeting. Have u heard from him?   Blake Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 01:20 am:        NICE!   Interex2050 Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 01:24 am:        I am truly speechless... Kevin your products and the passion behind them is something to be desired for in anything. Your work is at the top of the top, if only more things were designed and made with the same love, care, and passion. Not taking and shortcuts or making any compromises is so rare nowadays. The class of work you do is on par with that of the Pagani Zonda (one of the most beautifully crafted machines that I have seen). To say that I admire your work is a huge understatement. I wish you the best of luck in you venture.   Surveyor Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 03:27 am:        Simple clean unfussy design, so form does follow function afterall - BEAUTIFUL   Buellerx Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 03:32 am:        That is a work of art!   Xldevil Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 04:15 am:        What about one for the tubers? Ralph   Kds1 Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 08:22 am:        Thanks guys!!!! Let me start with Xldevil...the tubers is a whole different tooling and shape and everything else, but it's not to say that in the future it will not happen... I'll have this one mounted on my race bike in a few days and I'll send somebody the pics to post...right now I wanted to let you guys know that I'm very serios about these bikes and how they should perform and the fact that you can have a product that looks good and the power is there with little tuning....my main concern is to take care of the people on the list for the SS first, and then I'll be ready to get this other stuff going....I'll have to make sure the CF will handle the vibration and heat of the beast before I'll sell one.... Kevin www.kdfab.com   Alanshouse Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 08:35 am:        Well it looks nice Kevin. Lets hope it holds up through the test phase.   Dmextreme Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 09:19 am:        Wow that piece of artwork is fantastic. I am very curious as to prices. Great work Kevin. You guys are very dedicated little team. Bravo!   Gearhead998 Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 09:27 am:        That thing is wayyy too gorgious to be under the bike with all of the road grime.   Got1nut Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 09:41 am:        i just lost another nut   99buellx1 Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 10:17 am:        That would look reeeaal good on my CityX! Very nice   Skyguy Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 11:07 am:        Kevin, What the hell were you thinking? That thing has a major flaw. It is probaly going to get me stuck on the side of the road for hours. Crossing a puddle would be just wrong.   Firebolteric_ma Posted on Friday, April 14, 2006 - 11:20 am:        um...well..that...i mean....uuhh...i'm speachless....wow... i don't have a drummer but i think i soon will.. that is a true work of art. you have a gift for this type of work kevin.
