New finished look! (almost) :)

[JSP]

All I really want to do now is a FE and I will be happy.

Here is how my bike stands right now:

Removed decals (stars and Yamaha coin logos)
Chopped windscreen
Removed mirrors
Homemade block-off plates
Bar-end mirror
Hyperpro front spring
Hyperpro rear spring (Black)
15wt fork oil
Forks raised 8mm
Handlebars in aggressive position and rotated down
Michelin Pilot Road 2CT tires

I think that's it...

Pics of how it sits right now: (sorry, bike is really dirty!)

Real nice bro. You think about throwing a cowl on there?

 

[Detrich]

Looks great! In CA it's illegal not to have a mirror... Is it different in OR?

he has bar end mirror(s).... you can barely see it....

so you painting the front fender?
Looking at some rear fender/hugger when you get the FE?


looks cool so far. Def made it a meaner/leaner looking beast.

Are you running a 170 in the rear?

A cowl? U mean the windscreen? It is on there. Chopped lower. It was dark so it is harder to see. I will get some better pics in the daytime.

I do have a mirror. One bar-end mirror on the left side. I can see more with that one bar end than I could with the stock mirrors. It is convex, and I can see directly behind me as well. OR only requires one mirror.

Nope, it is the stock size. Just a brand new tire, so its still nice and full :thumbup:

Not sure about the fender. I'm not going to pursue it right now, but if I come across a very cheap fender from a wrecked bike or something, then I will jump on it.

Hugger maybe in the future as well.

Thanks. Nope, I think its just since it was dark out and the flash made some stuff look darker.

I'll get some better pics today.

Rear seat cowl I meant.

Just an FYI but I have a carbon fiber front fender that would match the rear hugger well. Still in debate if ill do this mode myself cause I'm no longer a big fan of the CF look. So I may sell the thing.

Originally I bought it cause my original was destroyed in a freak wire incident. Pics in my gallery. Paid 125ish delivered.

BTW our fender is a reused FZ6 fender. 07 model if I remember correctly.

Ah! Sorry I missed that. No probably not, my wife rides a lot with me. Would be too much a pain to switch back and forth. :thumbup:

Looking damned fine Joe! Well done! How's the ride with the new springs all around?

I think he means a rear seat cowl, it replaces the rear passenger seat and gives it a more "race" like look.

Bike looks great!!
