Hi folks, My names is Ryan and while not being a new rider, this is one of my first posts...
I live in the N.E. and am considering going naked and changing out some other points of interest (i.e. bars, mirrors) for a street fighter look... Parts are hard to come by but I paint for a living so I'm cool with general body work... any advice or pics/links would be greatly appreciated....
P.S. anybody got a used pair of rear sets or know where I can find an exhaust adapter? Money is tight and my wife leaves for Iraq soon :2guns: so I'd like to get my project underway...

I hope you realize that being on a motorcycle you're pretty much invisible to the surroundings , and with those flush mounts and integrated stop light/signals you're like non-existent...
sorry for thread jack but I just want you to realize that you need to make your motorcycle visible, NOT invisible...
drive safely and have fun :thumb:
