I think it would look even more amazing with the frame, subframe, swingarm, forks and wheels all powdercoated a glossy black.

Looks good.

Where are you at? I am from edmonton and I think today is about the first day I could even pull my bike out onto my driveway.

Too much snow.

I agree lose the fender, and even though it does look really good, the flatblack just makes it look like a cheap bike.

i'll be racing it this summer so i don't really want to put anymore money into asthetics

its a decent job i guess but u can still see a little of the purple paint (used to be an Alstare) on the insides on the fairings. doesn't bother me though

it sounds pretty good, not raspy or overly loud.. kinda generic 4 stroke sounding i guess i'd like to swap it out for a Yoshimura though...

they came stock on Alstare editions

besides getting a clear screen, a fender eliminator another thing i gotta get asap.. i'm not cheap but i don't want to pay $100+ for a piece of metal to remount my own signals. does anyone know of a cheap way to get rid of the fender while keeping the stock signals (i'm not a fan of underbodies)

i went out for a 2 hour ride today cause the mainroads are clear.. but i had to ride on the sidewalk to get out of my neighborhood haha

If you're lookin for a cheap fender eliminator just hacksaw the fender off, Dremel the edges, and use 2 small L-brackets to attach your plate to your tail. Cost me nothing cause I already had L-brackets lol.
