damn, that's a crazy nose fairing, i've never seen one like that before. it's looking good though. why the brake light on a track bike? are you allowed to have them?

and the slick makes it look so sweet

The person who had it before me cut it to install head lights.I left the brake light in their cause I didn't like the empty hole,lights are disconnected.I need a new slick that one is worn out.Who said you can't fit a 200/60 on a 954?

180/55 dips in quicker than a 190/50 but has less contact patch going around corners.195/55 has more contact patch and turn in is better.The 200/60 turn in is slower but you can get on the power so much sooner that you can make up that time lost in a heart beat.Other riders like the 180/60,but these are all pro race tires that I use.
