Long time rider and mechanic, I just picked up a 2004 CBR F4i that has been very badly modded and squidded to death. It is a very low milage bike bike omg is it hideous looking...for now.
Here's where it gets good, I personally like bikes that look bone stock. It's my opinion that most modern bikes are good looking and designed pretty good from the factory and usually only suffer from emissions related performance issues which I love to tinker with and make better. But I already have 2 other bone stock looking sleepers and I really don't have toomuch time for a 3rd. I do think that I could be motivated to make something new though and my first thought is a "do it all" cbr that will survive the roads in new england without drawing too much attention from the po-9. I'll do the work and take photos as I go and in the end I'll do a dyno run and a V-log, after that how about an auction? Maybe we could benefit some unfortunate rider that had something horrible befell him/her? Who knows, I'm open to ideas and I'll let you guys make the decision by popular vote.
Rules:
No dumbass squid bikes with retarded headlights and stick on carbon.
NO CHROME!
No plasti dip.
No GP style mufflers
No Knobby tires
No Turbo/NOS/Blowers
All parts are free, cheap, or oem but not stolen "cheap" or oem "equivalent."
A typical example of a good bike ruined.
I hope you can revive it to it's stock glory.
However if you have the choice... you could make it like this one:nice bike example
Then it doesn't matter if someone wins or not, you still have a geat bike...
