Well, I'm impressed. Very nice work. I was wanting a split seat on my 2000 F4 & briefly entertained the idea of installing a 600 RR tail. At the last min, I found all the remaining F4i split seat components to do the F4i split seat swap. Anyway, good job.

 

Have you thought about getting all the bolts powdercoated or at least painted black as well?

 

yeah i did, but i think that would be a little much. if it were a show bike, then i could see myself doing that. but i ride the bike everyday. the fairings and bolts come off often for maintenance and the likes. and then they'd get scratched up and that would drive me nuts.

piece is primered and ready for paint, guys. going to the store to pick up what i need to start spraying, and then i gotta get crackin on the undertail. more pics by day's end...

 

na, subframe is hidden still. i used the lower half of the f4i tail to keep all that looking kosher. was a pain, but that's what i love about doing this kind of work. challenging.

 

From Hudson Valley eh?

Do you still do paint jobs and stuff on the side?

 

oh yeah, i'm looking to do that as a side job/hobby. help any fellow riders out. where you from, manmade??? PM me, let's talk if you need something done. same goes for anyone else local to me. if you need some help or work done, hit me up.

 

UPDATE



















UPDATE

no undertail yet. but she fits well and the tail light looks sleek. smoked out, matches the look i'm looking for with the bike. a lot more sanding and touching up, making the undertail, then she gets paint. and i have the grilles for the tail, they'll go in with the final install.

 

wow that looks great!

I bet it would look even better with a seatcowl...

 

The vents don't do it for me but the long skinny tail light looks kickazz!

 

Yeah, if the vents were smaller it'd be better.
