In two minds

[Kittyhawk]

I've just taken off the fairings on my bike....and I think it looks quite hot...

Should I leave them off, make a few mods and make it a street fighter style....

Or...

Put the fairings back on and have it as it was originally intended to be?

*As for the poll it was ment to read

Yes for fairings to remain on the bike.
No for fairings to be on the bike.

[Maha]

Yes...no!...yes no yes yes...noooo!!......now im all confused....:confused:

[Kittyhawk]

Here's some pics...with fairings on...

[The Pastor]

actaully the poll makes no sence, yes to having the fairings on, and no to streetfighter style?

[Kittyhawk]

And.. here's some pics with fairings off.

Maybe I should leave the rear fairing on and have front ones off??

Argh....I cant decide!!

[Toaster]

Kittyhawk, you stripping again??!!

[Crisis management]

Maybe the decision is not whether to have fairings on or not, but whether you want to customise / modify the bike?

Go for the custom look, it shows an enthusiasm and individuality that can be sadly lacking nowadays......

Once you've decided to custiomise it, decide on its function and a style you want to develop.


Then worry about the fairings!

Erm....how do I change the poll lol!!


Kittyhawk, you stripping again??!!

Sweetheart, Im always stripping!! :shutup:

[Toaster]

Sweetheart, Im always stripping!! :shutup:

Hey!! no fair!!! how am I supposed to work this afternoon now?

[cowpoos]

I think it looks a bit ugly either way!! ummm.....have you thought about gettting a nicer bike?

[Steam]

Looks nice naked, if you hide the nasty wiring out of the way. Put the rear bit back on though, you want to see the grunty bits, not the naked arse poohole.

Hmm....now you've got me thinking even more now...

Work.....lol shesh

[Maha]

My bike is Nekked at the moment and to be honest...i cant wait for to be dressed again, sort of looks...cold :cold:
All or nothing Kitty...no half measure's please....:nono:

[Babelfish]

Personally I reckon fairings on, unless you're prepared to properly street fighter the bike...and the bike has a fair bit of work to get to street fighter level blingage wise (please refer to DMNTD's school of choppers for more info :mellow: ).

Almost every time I've taken my fairings off my bikes I've thought...woo hoo, thats getting me street fighter tent pitched...but it soon passes when I start contemplating the work required.

I do like the way they mount the lights though, it does prepare it somewhat for such a project.

[Toaster]

That's what scares me......:gob:

Can you see you're bike now....have the mechanics finished thrashing a newly suspended trumpy around the norfland twisties? Or are you reminiscing? :bye:

Oh....um....yeah, please make up a token comment about he whole bike striptease thing so that I dont seem off topic.....:mellow:

[Maha]

Looks like a crashed heap of poo without fairings on if you dont spend some decent dollars on streetfightering it properly. Put the fairings back on, and fix your poll, it dosent make sense. You just like everything to be naked dont you!


Moi agree's with the poll bit, and all the other stuff you said...TempBJ was on the right track also....:yes:

[Babelfish]

+1 :yes:

You said you wouldnt tell....I feel so cheep....and that wasnt a pole pal, that was a toothpick :drool:

You know me... I think naked is all good! I'll get around to doing that naked bike ride one day lol!!
(anyone keen to join me on that with their bike too???) Might do that next summer for the hell of it.

I should be using the Multi option but what the hell....um Thursday is the day she will be returned...they spoke to Robert this morning, damn! its taking a while....Keep ya bits ON! Kitty.....i vote NO!!!

[McJim]

Don't do it. You'll get stuck to the seat.

Leave the fairings on, sell it and buy a naked bike. Easy.

One bloody good reason for the custom look and individuality to be sadly lacking........

[placidfemme]

Hard choice. As it is without any mod's, gotta agree with Speedie, looks a bit rough.

With the fairings on its a sexy gixxer.

The streetfighter look is great, but only if done the right way, which can be pretty costly (in time and money). Put the fairings back on for now... do some research on the net for other gixxer600 owners that have modified thier bikes to streetfighters, get a basic idea of cost for parts and labour, then decide if its worth it.

I'm a huge fan of customizing ones bike and adding little bling bits. But at the end of the day it doesn't matter what any of us say... your the one who has to ride it.

Good luck making your decision :)

Check these out:

um... wow, not many people have made streetfighters out of the gixxer600... yahoo has nothing and google has crap...

[The Pastor]

I think it looks awesome with out the fairings on, but i'd be biased.

[Kittyhawk]

Found these two street fighter pics.

As for the other bike not sure what it is....but it would soo match my legwarmers!

Maybe I should make the bike into a furby?

[Babelfish]

Yeah man, like I said, alorra work. But the other end would be worth it....shit, you almost talked me into doing mine

[Morcs]

Keep the fairings on.

If in the unfortunate event that you write them off, then streetfighter it.

:D

[yod]

get a honda or a kwaka....problem solved

[Pumba]

A half arsed streetfighter is just another name for a bike that has been thrown down the road and the owner:

a)Cant afford to fix it
b)cant be screwed going through and replacing the farings
c)Knows they are going to crash again before the end of the month so a head light kit is cheaper.

Unless your going to streetfighter it properly, normally meaning parting with quite a bit of cash in the process, keep the farings on it

Just my opinion :done:

[xwhatsit]

Now THIS is nice. I do love Yoshi.

My personal opinion is fairings off, but not some geeky streetfighter thing. Do a nice naked.

[Curious_AJ]

FAIRINGS ON!!!

it looks much better the way nature intended it to be...

[Colapop]

Fairings off but you'll have to do some work to tidy it up to become a proper streetfighter... If you leave the fairings off as is... it just mean you're too cheap to get your fairings fixed...

[slamdog]

Fairings off mate and fighter that baby :Punk:

Thats what a street fighter is you knob jocky queer.

[CM2005]

that lepoard(sp*) bike is a GPZ500S. fairings on!!!!!!!!!! and save up and buy a spondon kit, then do it.

[Motig]

How about just leaving the fairings on one side and have the other naked ! Best of both worlds then:yes:

[Mr Merde]

I used to be in two minds, but the drugs helped. Now I know it was only, that being male, I was ruled by two brains and not always both at the same time.



Mr :shit:

[Pumba]

Thats what a street fighter is you knob jocky queer.

10 points for originality when it comes to name calling :yawn:

[RC1]

put it back together and it might look half decent it looks like shit naked imho

[The Pastor]

a real street fighter is susposed to look ruff as gutz ready for a fight type. I like it with out the fairings on.

[placidfemme]

I've found the perfect example... is this what you want?

*thinks it looks great*

[YLWDUC]

Ye GODs Kittyhawk!:gob:

Put the fairings back on before your baby gets itself arrested for indecent exposure. :shutup:

[Devil]

You need one of these...

...but you cant have one.

[Pumba]

I've found the perfect example... is this what you want?

*thinks it looks great*

Different but a very nice example, unfortuently it reminds of of the kawaka
er6n

[LilSel]

Lol eeep oh no..

I've just cleaned my babe and she looks very clean and sparkly now....I will put the fairings back on tomorrow as I'd rather have a complete bike than a rat looking bike.

I will street fighter it at some stage. I quite like the different look, but that will be after I've customised it starting with a chain, sprockets, frame sliders...and the list goes on :innocent:

[The Pastor]

it looked hot with out the fairings on. Do eeeeet

[The Pastor]

You need one of these...

...but you cant have one.

what is that bike? Is it stock?

[Kittyhawk]

I've found the perfect example... is this what you want?

*thinks it looks great*

You need one of these...

...but you cant have one.

*scratches head* You know how to confuse me dont ya!

[Maha]

You know how to confuse me dont ya!

[Kittyhawk]

You wanna know what the sad thing is?

I looked away from the computer and thought "where??"
