Cool. You may have made a better choice in colors afterall. I got home last night after a ride down by the river, and the white part of the jacket was peppered with bugs! Didn't even notice the bugs anywhere else on the jacket lol....

Man, that bike has some really trick parts on it. It even has gold anodized clutch cover bolts. :cool I'm not sure if Yosh made a full exhaust for our bikes or not. It could be a full system for a Thunderace though, as I just fit a full stock Thunderace exup header pipe and Yosh slipon system to my ...

I wanted the white/black but they ran out of my size before the IRS got me my $$$ back That sucks. The black/silver would have been my second choice also. Still a great looking jacket in either color. What did you end up giving for that jacket if you don't mind asking? You can pm it if you prefer...

I can see quite a bit more than my elbow with my stockers. Matter of fact, I can darn near see my whole arm............. :poke

That looks really nice! Got any more pics from the side so we can see those Marchesni's? :)

How do you like that Yosh system? I'm going to be installing one soon myself.

Rim Stripes Anyone?

I've been wanting to put rim stripes on the bike for close to a year now. Every time I thought about the rim stripes, it seemed I was away from the computer, and when I was on the computer I was always thinking about something other than rim stripes. I was at the auto parts store the other day and p...

You think that bike it is ugly, you should check out the latest issue of 2WheelTuner mag. It has a FZR 1K Borg streetfighter version in there. By "Borg" I mean like Star Trek "Borg". It has a bunch of convoluted tubing running in and out of the fairings, and the rear subframe is nearly flippin' vert...

Nice to hear from the Mag, what most of us already knew. ;) Thanks for posting. I even learned something from it cuz I didn't know that the 91+ models were longer or had revised steering geometry. Kinda wondered why my current 94 feels different than my 89 model I had back in the day lol....

Bike looks good but I liked it better before the new stickers. I think it's the font that's making my eyes hurt. But hey, that's just me. If you like it then that's all that matters dude,,,,,, keep doing your thing. :hi

Awesome lookin' streetfighter dude!! The bottom pics it looks almost like a 'camo' paint job on that first photo. It looks "bitchin",,, well done.

Especially like the R1 tail retrofit. :D
