Why ruin a perfectly good sports bike by making it a streetfighter. HAving said that it does look pretty bad ass for a streetfighter.

In one of the pics the knives are off. Probably only for static display.

Otherwise I like some of it but just can't get past that headlight surround. I'd give it a 4/10 currently, but change that surround and it woulkd go up another 4 notches.

I'm with Oakie!!!

Plus, the headlight surround spoils it!!

I dont see what was wrong with the standard Ninja. Some people tend to forget that keeping things simple is usually best! Look at N4CR's 2006 ZX10R... looks fuckin ace and all he did was put a acerbis head light set, bar mounted mirror and all over gloss black paint job.

Yeah I agree dropping it down looks way better.
Not to my personal taste but I do reckon leaving the wheels red makes for a half finished looking job.

Yeah, Re positioning the headlamp cowl to the fkn landfill would improve it no end.

8 for effort, and because its different. Which bike do you think everyone will be looking at if this was parked next to a standard model?
I know lots of american custom bikes get into spiky bits, but i dunno about the knives, thats going abit far, and it wouldnt get a WoF with those on.
The headlight surround does look abit wrong unless you picture the whole bike as a living creature. Like the trademe ad says "freshly built and ready for your own air brushing" Id say a nice dragon scale airbrush job would really bring the thing to life. or perhaps a skeletal look, the headlight surround does have a skull-ish shape, with the side fairings done in a black with white ghost airbrushing. Either way that color is too timid for such a dramatic fairing kit and the red rims clash rather than match
but yeah 8 out of 10.

1. But if you look carefully you can see that under all that crap there's a motorbike.

All of the plastics are hideous. It's a real shame though, it seems to have had plenty of time and effort put into it.

That's all to down to the beholder.

**imdying** · 11th February 2007, 19:16

Yep, and often things like that look a lot better in the flesh

I rate it 7, cos stock bikes are boooring. May as well drive a Toyota Corolla if you are going to ride a stock-looking bike. The best bikes have character, and that one does. Love it or hate it, ya can't ignore it.
