Default Looking to go back FF... Color options?

Hey guys,

I am looking to go back full fairing on my F4i. I love the street fighter look, but think a nice set of fairings would make the bike look much better.

I want to keep the metallic blue powdercoated frame. So I am looking for some color combos on the fairings that would look good with that. Open to all opinions!

I was thinking maybe a white fairing package with blue/??? Decal set. I can't find anywhere that will ship cheap to Alaska, or a cheap set to make up for shipping yet haha

Good luck finding a set though. I agree, a white set would look good...

Conrice,

Do you have any suggestions as to something to change the front up then? I would like to clean it up some, and hide the front air box inlets and wires and such.

Maybe a belly pan of some sort? I would definitely need to upgrade the headlight if I stay Fighter. I've got some LED pods I pulled off my truck that would work great.

For the 954, Gemo makes covers like this. I'm sure someone makes something similar for the F4i.



Get the headlight you want. There's a ton of headlights in any style you want. It just depends on what you like.

As far as a belly pan, what I'd do is buy two completely junked side fairings, cut them each the way I wanted the belly pan to be, then plasti-weld them together on the bottom, sand, paint, and voila - you've got a belly pan. Or, you could buy one that's pre-fab'd out of Fiberglass. A million companies make them.









But if you want fairings, get fairings! There's nothing wrong with them (or at least, that's what I tell people - haha)

That air box piece looks AWESOME. I didn't know they made something like that, I was going to try to make something myself. I will definitely look em up.

And I am partial to the street fighter look, as thats what I've always had. But I think the F4is look great with a clean set of fairings on it. I plan on repainting the tank if I do keep it black though. Planning on bringing over the POW*MIA theme from my truck to it. I feel like the front looks so empty with nothing from the tank forward or down. I have a new stator cover that is black and says "CBR" for it that will be put on before the spring. But if I stay street fighter I will probably get a stock one to match the motor, I think a black one would look out of place without the fairings.
