We assume you're riding a Yamaha. Otherwise, you're WAY over the edge. |

I plan on lots of bling (Carbon and Chrome). I think it's part of making the bike your own. That's what it's all about right? Your own bike riding your own ride? |

Dyna...If the double bubble doesn't cut it for you, let me know. A good friend owns Laminar Lip and his deflectors do wonders raising the still air pocket without messing up the look too much. Check them out at http://www.laminarlip.com/ When I see you, I will give you some background info on Andy and all that he has done in plastics for the automotive and motorcycle industries. |

Blackbelt, We've got quite a few "furry" bikes around here; and while I agree with you, I think it's silly, I have to remember how I get razzed about riding a Buell. Same thing... I have to respect their ideas on what's cool. Don't have to like them though! |

...furrybikes around here have been reserved by those who can't (or won't) afford to replace busted panels (usually caused by stoopid byke trix), I personally have seen long neon coloured shag on more than one bike....ugggggh! |

Not much for bling, but when I was racing offroad, I glued a Mohawk wig to my helmet. It was cool for a while. |

DJ, that might be coming back in.. i mean if the trend stays the way it is going, who knows... and it is still a good looking bike... but i still can't get past the fuzzy seat, oh yeah and he has a dog bone embroidered on the rear seat... with the saying "every dog needs a bone" yeah he thinks he is a PIMP! |

Just a double bubble... I plan on CF frame protectors and I'll probably polish the pipes. |

Cant wait to get this windscreen, supposed to be here monday. Should help with the wind blast & helmet buffeting you get at 100+ mph. |
