Aaaaw much kinder responses thank you! I actually was not sure i was on the right board. Actually you have great points above and I am keeping them in mind. I truly love the bike and it gets looks i simply am just not one to have something everyone has.

I like to separate things. the rim tape was actually something on my list for sure to play off the red stripe on the side.

Also exhaust plays a major role in cleaning up the rear as well. I may try and shorten the cans this weekend until i come across a decent priced 4-1 exhaust set up.

As for seat I don't typically ride for more than an hr or so at a time however I do run with a group once in a great while were we ride all day.

I considered changing riding height a bit however to do it correctly and not change the handling as mentioned above seems a bit costly.

So I am going to break the bike down at a buddies shop and see if I can simply modify the existing plastic to be a bit..a bit..shorter and possibly mount the seat maybe an 1" higher to open up some rear space.

I have seen that street fighter bike posted every where. Great bike but not exactly what I want for this one. Thats a bit too aggressive!

I did consider a RR rear but I am taking your thoughts of comfort in consideration also.

As for the 200hp well in time..im time I do plan to beef that up as well. LOL..IN time!!

I will post pics and I promise you will not be at disappointing!

I do everything tastefully..lol..to me any way!!

Thanks guys!!

Jonathan

Did you start whacking them? Because I almost did.
I merged 2 of them in off topic, closed another one, but left one in each model specific section....LOL..
Total bombardment.

I killed off two I think - you'd think people would have the sense to delete if it was posted elsewhere - or don't people read any sections other than their own ?
Ah, well the Gangsta biker got killed off 5 times, once for real and twice more by Maxwell.
, and Da Trout Enforcer got his *** twice more. Dayum - lie down damnit !
