hi all
I have a guy who loves carbon fibre so much that he transformed his 07 600rr into this. Some will like it and some will hate it. you decide

Motorcycles should be colorful. They are an expression of the good side of life, they area reason to work hard and be productive.That thing looks depressing, kinda like an old BBQ.

That pic is from Rockwall Honda. They sell the fairings. I know it is Rockwall because of the bike in the background. It is Gary McCoys' NSR 500. They have it for sell.

I have to admit that the full carbon fiber look is not as bad as i had envisioned.

Its cool... but the real purpose of the carbon is weight savings, and he still has that one million pound exhaust on there. It looks dope, but I think four grand could have been reallocated much more efficiently.
