You might be able to swap someone the orange plastics if you are going to paint those (side not fender its too faded).

Just a thought given orange was a 1 year run... and I am partial! "Save the Aztecs".

Keep us updated. This is half the fun looking at what everyone else is doing.

Decided that the clubman bars were just to far forward and were hurting my wrists so I went with a drag bar and also put on a rear shock from a 97 katana.  Tomorrow the new 15t sprocket should arrive can't wait to get that on and see if the acceleration increases any.  Anyways on to the pics....

This was after the paint job.



And with the new bars on and shock.

 what bomb said : "I would love to see a video of someone riding it.  I want to see what the body position would look like."

I hope you leave it just like that,....perfect

Only plans left for it are the katana rear wheel, progressive springs, k&n lunchbox filter and jet kit.  Then I think it will be complete lol..................for now.

Here is a ic of me riding with the clubman bars on, i loved the stance of it and the way the bike handled with them on, but it was just too much pressure on my wrists.  Haven't gotten to really ride with the drag bars on so I will get a pic of me on it as soon as I can.  Also I am 6'1".

I went through the exact same transition you did with the clubmans and dropping back to drag bars. With different rear sets it could have worked. My problem was that my legs got so cramped up from where the pegs were. Your bike looks a bit better than mine did though 

Here was me at 5'7" and clubmans



Anyways, how did you go from what looks like a chopped frame and got the tail plastics back on with the tail light?

[Watevaman]

 That's what I was talking about with the clubmans. With risers you get a swept back position similar to clipons but its much higher and more level with the horizontal plane.

I never did chop the frame, all I did was take off the bars on the back that the rear fairing attached to which was also the same bars that the tail light had attached to.  I like the look of them off but the R6 tail light that I had on there went thru to many bumps and eventually fell off.  So I had to put everything back on.  Didn't like it at first but its starting to grow on me.

Given the number of crappy 'custom' re-builds, re-paints and elementary school level decal jobs I've seen over the years, I would say people actually need to listen more when their more knowledgeable peer group tells them something is not a good idea.
