That is terrible. Looks like they gave Charlie Sheen a five minute lesson on photoshop and said design a bike.

Yeah looks OK. What's up with the none functioning buell scoops...kind of out of place.

For all that trouble, I would have at least put some new rearsets on it.

No they're not actually buell parts, they just look similar. That bike has a water cooled motor in it so they put those on as radiator cowls. The GS doesn't have a radiator, so they would just be sitting there, but you can still browse ebay for radiator cowls and bolt them on if that's what you're going for.

I know, I was just referring to the difference between the water cooled Kawasaki motor and the GS motor. Isn't the oil cooler down by the bottom of the motor? not up where those cowls are in the picture?
