Default It looks the part

The bike looks clean. It looks like it may have been lowered, but it just may be the illusion from being tied down. The rims are nice.

About the License Plate. I do not know Ohio laws, but most states require the plate to be visible from at least 50 feet to the rear of the motorcycle. You may get harassed about the placement if while sitting on the bike it is not visible or if it is not illuminated at night. Just a heads up.

CT said most of it but other things are aftermarket mirrors, it has that goofy headlight sticker on it IMO, and for some reason the front rotors and rear hub are painted orange????????? It looks taken care of.

****EDIT...The bike is lowered, about 1 to 1.5 inches I would guess. In 929rr4 picture look at triple trees and they are below stock.

Thanks for the input trey and monkey! I guess the guy wanted the rotors to match; I would like to get them painted back to original color. Good catch on being lowered I wouldn't of caught that with my lack experience. I appreciate you hooking me up on the cowl site. I bought some pit bull weld-ones so I can use a stand, have you guys tried that or heard anything negative about them?

I have uploaded a video about the license plate, do you think this help stave off the harassement?

Wow even better. Thats a nice set up. Now all you need is a seat cowl, and race exhaust hanger and you'll have a solo look to the tail..

Thats what I want to do to mine at least..

Id keep the plate like that. Looks good.

Default LP fine / Solo Cowl

The plate should be fine, unless an LEO wants to be a pain, it is illuminated and appears to be well visible.

Solo Seat Cowl--- Honda CBR929 Targa Solo Seat Cowl - White & Yellow - 25-161YW by Targa

and what CT was saying I have a Carbon Fiber Exhaust Hanger. Cost me about $15 off ebay about 4 years ago. I never got around to buying a solo seat cowl because I have a wife and she enjoys riding and it is not like other bikes to replace seat with cowl. The exhaust hanger cleans it up nice if you are not going to have a passenger.

About the PitBull Weld-on spools, unless you already have a spooled stand, I would just buy the swingarm (non-spooled) stand, but from the sounds of it you already have a spooled stand. I have not heard anything bad about them.
