The Street Tracker needed a custom exhaust so GPM decided to bend and spot weld an exhaust into this angular shape to give it more attitude.

The originally worn-out engine was overhauled it inside and out. Then they GPM finished it off by polishing and painting.

GPM made some good choices by adding pinstripes to the side tank and a gorgeous pin up girl on top. A special bracket was made to place the speedometer between the triple clamp and tank.
