Ok so the bike doesn't come with red on the bottom part of the fairings, did you have that painted with the black part? Also looks like you have HID's, which kind? I love your bike, its so original and clean. Why do you still have stock exhaust?
RE: FOXY 2.2 (dial-up warning)
i couldnt even think to do that to a bike if i wanted to be unique.

i would be afraid to ride a bike like that haha i wouldnt want to mess it up

So yeah, when someone says motorcycles aren't a money pit............tell them to go f**k themselves.
Why do you still have stock exhaust?
Not to mention, I haven't heard any exhausts that I have fallen in love with yet. Akrapovic sounds the best to me so far, but I still haven't found that really deep-toned, aggressive Ducati-ish sound I've been waiting for. So until then, no overly-loud buzzy-cans for me.
AND Laguna Seca has a decibel limit at their track..........so nothing over stock is allowed. (for trackdays and raceschools anyway). And since I'm signed up for classes with my bike for the next 2 years, a slipon really wouldn't work for me.
Not against exhausts or anything, but they're just not for me.

Looks very nice, sometimes i wonder why certain things are done from the factory when certain thing are clearly better. The Black mid-fairing looks 100x betteras isthe black rear sub frame(?). Your bike really just has a more balanced look than stock. Very nice.

Oh really? I thought two brothers had a pretty deep sound, at least it does on my brothers bike but his is a 1krr so I'm sure its a little difference. I actually haven't really heard a two brothers on an 07 600rr but hopefully want to get one for my future bike.
+1 on going to Laguna Seca thats pretty tight, something I want to get into sometime as well, but you're going to take that beauty on the track? I'd be scared of messing it up...
