can anybody say what aftermarket things they think this bike has gone through? like the paint and other easy things to pick up by a CBR trained eye? i couldnt find any other bikes with the same paint as this, only closely related ones. can you notice anything else? and am i right about an aftermarket paintjob?

thanks a lot!
jon.

Im new to this stuff... but this is what i saw...

Yoshi Pipe
Carbon Fiber Tank Pand
Smoked Windshield
Red Wheels
Flushmount Turns in Front and Rear
Rear Fender Eliminator Kit
And the Seat Portion of the Fairings is painted Red

I think thats stock paint, other than the rear section.. thats all I could see

 

Not aftermarket paint on the lowers, just pulled the silver stickers off.

Rear looks more like a chop-job then an eliminator kit to me.

Seats look custom two-tone.

probably stock wheels, just painted.

Flush-mounts, screen, sliders and the Yosh pipe.

Just call em like I see em. [8D]

 

Most def. a chop job on the tail. Cheaper than getting a full undertail but tacky in my eyes. Are you planning on buying this bike?

 

i'd say the tail is stock color as well, just not the one that came with the bike.

 

well you'd have to get some close ups to tell for sure in some areas, but yeah they just took the stickers off the stock fairing... OR if it was laid down they bought stock fairings without decals... the rims were powder coated red as they only come one std blackish color. It looks like the stock fender was sawed off, pretty standard out the gate before an undertail can be afforded. The seats are just covers I would imagine then again they could have been reapulstered. Only close up could of removed seats could tell. The exhaust is probably a slip-on as aposed to a full header. The way you can tell is that the stock header is flat black and not polished. The windscreen is also new. I can't see the instument cluster or handle bars to see anything else... but from what I see here I would imagine everything else is bone stock. Usually people only do cosmetic surgury to their bikes so a ride would be fully customized from the outside first. Just the way it goes.

 

since everyone else seems to have nailed it on the head, another 'serious' input would be just pointless .. so i give you my reply... it looks like it was dropped off at helen keller's house for a redecoration.

a bit rude? yes... but i think that is hideous. [:-]

 

I think it looks better than the std silver/red... I always thought that was dog ugly... red/white too the only thing I would say has to go is the seat covers. they are pretty tacky.
