the no upper fairing look :)
Hey guys,
I'm close to getting my bike back together but have no fairings.
I really just want to ride it as soon as possible and am wondering how it will look with no upper fairing. In other words, it'll just have the headlights sticking out the front lol.
I'm going to need the tail for sure to cover up all that stuff back there. I'm just looking for some info and/or some pics of an F4i with no front fairings.
Is there any reason it has to be there?
Thanks for any help.

There's always a way to do anything. And yes, you can rig it up w/o the front fairing. However, it will take quite a bit of time just to rig it...prob more time than just putting a new front fairing on there. You'll have to fab up a bracket to hold the headlight assembly & either ziptie the hell out of it, or mount bolts where they prob shouldn't go. As pointed out, be careful of electrical connections...that they should be waterproof.
I just recently saw one that had the front fairing removed to make it a streetfighter *but* two custom HIDs were used w/ custom made bracket mounted. It was carefully thought out & executed.
Whatever you do...good luck.

I luuuuuuuuuuuuuv the street-fighter look on many bikes, and the F4i is no exception. If done properly it can look like one lean mean street-fightin machine.
Here are the brackets:
