Nearly finnished.

Post by AZ »

Repainted a few things in candy red and gloss black with a modified front mudguard and a cut down cbr250 lower fairing for a belly pan.Got sticky tyres and the Falco shock and now handles very well 8) .

It`s a standard honda cbr600fv screen with the lugs trimmed off and given a little more of a curve with the aid of a heat gun,then given a blended out smoked effect wthe some 2k black and clearcoat.Then i drilled those strange tube things and bolted it on,simple :lol: .

A very neat job. :)

I had been thinking along similar lines myself, but wanted to get a spare set of 'horns' first.

The good thing about my setup is that it`s wider than the aftermarket ones and not higher at the front to clear the clocks, so the profile doesn`t develop a huge lump at the clocks which ruins the lines.The width of the screen keeps the wind of my chest and lets me concentrate on controlling the bike at 100 plus speeds rather than just trying to hold on.Probably the best performance add on i`ve done as the standard power is useless without the ability to control it

The front fender is a standard one that i modified by plastic welding the handlebar deflectors off either side of a mini-moto top fairing onto either side.The standard one kept cracking due to the wind pressure at silly speeds and cack handed wheelies so i decided to beef it up a little,worked so far and i love the look.
