Title: '07 Nakedness
Post by: foobar on August 02, 2007, 08:13:49 PM
I finally got around to taking pics of my 2007 F to E conversion. I'll eventually get bar-end mirrors but for now, it's coming together pretty well. Bon Appetit!

 :o  That looks really really good.   :bowdown: :thumb:

You didn't ask but umm those turn signals, I think it would look even better with the buell ones.

Thanks guys. The only other plans besides the bar-ends are (thanks to blue05) Buell or similar signals, stainless brake line and new tires. Of course at that point, I'll need new springs too  :icon_rolleyes:

I like what you did with the headlight bucket. I bought some flat black paint the other day, but I can't decide if it would look good the colors of my bike.

I really like your monochrome setup. The only thing I don't like about the newer bikes is the stripe on the tank.

Cool, all the way around.
