Well, I dropped my CBR, wrecking the left side plastics and some fairing mounts. As such, I've decided to turn it into a naked bike. I've got Aztec8 headlights on order, along with an Acewell all in one digital gauge. Here is a picture of the bike after the crash, and after I've stripped off all the plastics. I'll update as I get my parts and install them.

Thanks werase643, but I've already sourced new tail plastics, and the rear rim is just a bad paint job by the PO, it didn't sustain any damage in the crash.
Update: Installed Aztec8 4" headlights, attempted to install an Acewell all-in-one gauge. Turns out the gauge is defective, verified via voltmeter. So I'm sending that back and waiting on a replacement, but at least I have the wiring done for that. Additionally, I attempted to install the fuel tank that came with the plastics I picked up. Therein lies the problem, I am having a fuel flow issue. I'm going to pop the tank off tomorrow and see if I pinched the line. Next step after that is to check and see if the tap is clogged. If neither of those efforts produce results I'll just swap out the petcocks. Pictures will be forthcoming when it's done.
Just realized I forgot to post pics of the bike. Here it is as it stands now. I'm still waiting on new levers, and the gauge I was sent was defective, so I sent it back, and I'm waiting on a replacement. Eventually I'd like to reroute the wiring that runs along the frame to the inside of the frame, or perhaps through the frame tubes. I'll have to research the laws here and see what's legal as far as frame modification in order to make that happen. I'd also like to find some sort of flyscreen to put above the headlights, just to sort of tidy up that area aesthetically. Thoughts? Any suggestions?

I would try to pull the headlight up a little more. Maybe see if you can modify it to sit closer as well. Might look cleaner. I hate hor I can budge mine to be closer to my gauges.

I'd like to move the lights up a bit, but if it goes much higher the mounts start to interfere with wiring and the brake lines. Additionally, the lights are about as high up as the included wiring will allow, since all the electrics on this bike are pretty far back. I guess I could splice some additional wire length in, and fool around with all the tubing and lines a bit, but that seems like more trouble than it's worth. Aztec8 sells a nice flyscreen that I think would help with the look, but they want about 90 bucks for it, and that's more than I really want to pay. I've been keeping an eye out on ebay and craigslist, hopefully I'll luck out and somebody will put something I can use up for sale. Thanks for the feedback!
