Default Carbon CBR1000F

Saw this SC24 advertised on ebay recently- it was described as being a carbon CBR, no idea to what extent but it is pretty heavily modded.
It was offered at euro 2300

VFR swingarm, clever. Kind of like the twin headlight setup, but maybe the air intakes above could have been done a bit more elegantly?

I think maybe the "carbon" refers to the emissions.

That white center stand won't stay clean long, nice other than that.

swingarm is all that appeals to me - kinda looks like a PC 800 in some ways

One other thing seriously bugging me about this bike - so you do a nice job
with the swingarm !- then you go putting the exhaust can back on the right
IN THIS CASE WRONG side of the bike - wtf is up with that ?? I think all
attempts to run a single sided swingarm mean you have to chop the tail
and run an exhaust out the back otherwise it kinda defeats itself. - never
even mind the bug eyed look of it with nice poop brown colour ! ...I wonder
sometimes - I think this one was done under the influence of some serious
magic 'shrooms . the colour kinda hints at this fact....lol

That's what I was thinking. I don't like the head/tail lights, either.
Or the white wheels.
Not terrible looking, tho.

Kinda defeats the whole purpose of a single sided swing-arm doesn't it?
