i really don't like the idea of cutting the fairings though.. (i know it's worth it) but i just dont really know anywhere that could do it or a proper way to do it myself. any suggestions?

i'll have to look for that write up thanks! as for the snow... ya it gets cold here. i already have a few parts going out for some powder coating.. but nothing major ( heel gaurds, rear pegs etc..) just small stuff!! what frame sliders would you suggest? i've heard the delrin ones are the way to go.

Vorex are the most $$$$ ones i would say but they are good. I been using Pro-Teck I think thats the name of them. Ebay got bunch of them. What ever you do dont get the aluminum ones. I think if they are machined cut of delrin they would do the job.

here you go and they are not that hard to do in my opinion. good luck.
