Help Transforming F4i into Naked Bike
I recently laid down my F4i and scratched up the right fairing. I had sliders, so it wasn't that bad, but I want to strip off the fairings and convert my F4i into essentially a Naked Bike. I have always liked naked bikes and now I kinda have a reason to convert mine, but I don't want to do any mods that will be permanent. There are a few main things I would like to achieve with this which I am hoping the CBR forum community will help me with.
1. Replace front cowl with just small round dual headlights and maybe a little windscreen, kind of what is on some Monsters (Duc).
2. Clean up the internals and wiring that will be exposed after the fairings are removed
3. Remove/Replace rear seat cowl with a single seat (cut off in back look) or find a reduced cowl like the GP bikes have
-I would probably have to throw a new rear light on the back, but I would like to use my existing OEM part
I am in college and poor, so think of plans on a budget basis.
Cheers!

PS I am studying to be a Mech Engineer (Senior) and have worked on my bike a fair amount. I can use a mill and lathe, so bring on the technical jargon. I am slow when it comes to electric, hence why I'm not an electrical engineer.
