Awesome! I'll be interested to see the results and your thoughts on this conversion. That's exactly what I've been considering doing. Are you going to use stock bars, or are you using aftermarket bars?

Tim,i'm going to be using the stock r bars.
as far as the parts list
fairing
windscreen
mirrors
headlights
fairing brackets
triple tree
bars
bar ends
clutch cable
thottle cable
might of missed a few things i just called dave and told him what i wanted to do..
he pretty much rattled off the list.
price is around 675.00
seems like a bargain to me. since i was considering trading and would have lost my arse.
