Pics of half naked F4i?
Ok just wondering if anyone is running their bikes with no side fairings?
Reason I ask is because I pretty much replaced rear and front fairing with front fender, new ignition,all new relays,new front headlight harness and new air rams.
Got the bike at a great price. 01 600 f4i that was tipped/pushed over in PO garage damaging the fairings which somehow ripped apart the headlight harness wires. so now that she runs...great by the way. I was wondering if I could get pictures of members who run without side fairings.
Also I noticed today that I do not have a chain guard on my swing arm. Would it be recommended to buy one before any serious riding is considered? Thank You for answering these odd questions.
Here are the pictures of the resurrected beauty ( in my eyes )
Currently I park her in my living room seeing as how I live in a Apartment in MEMPHIS Tennessee....

a chain guard is also good because it keeps the chain lubricants from flying all over the place when riding. my chain guard is cut a little short so i have some flying and hitting my undertail sometimes.

Do you have pictures of your chain guard? I like the idea of no chain guard for some reason....but a short cut off might be more appealing.

I ride half naked because of busted up fairings from the PO too. Also no chain guard and my undertail and passenger peg are pretty grungy. I pretty much stopped cleaning it awhile ago. Should have three hoses as well, coolant overflow, fuel overflow, and fuel vent (I think) that are normally routed near the left fairing, I just tucked mine into the middle near the rear shock.

Could you post a few pictures? I am just wondering how nice the bikes can look with no side fairings....Just until I can get my hand on some.
