What's a 929 Blade look like with no body work - is it worth the hassle in getting the fuses etc relocated, modded top yoke for bars & clocks?

Is it not worth getting mix & match or pattern fairing panels & leaving whole lot white in a pre-season racer sort of way??

I'm not really a fan of streetfighters - for every good one you see, theres a load which have just been chucked together with the 'crashed but bodged back on the road sportsbike' look; then again from what you've said about your mechanical sympathy .............. :80:

to be honest i wasnt into the street fighter look, but got the fairings off and it doesnt look to bad get a belly pan back on it and a spray, dont think it will be too much work just raisers and renthals, not going to be rushing anything and am keeping ym eye out for fairings aswell, will be able to get spray job done at decent price knw a cupl of sprayers, wanted to street fighter it to keep my speed down abit lol

Yeah, that'll work, a naked bike has slowed me down. :)
