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

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

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

    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

    Another gixxer... unsure of the model

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

    I think it looks awesome with out the fairings on, but i'd be biased.
    Then I could get a Kb Tshirt, move to Timaru and become a full time crossdressing faggot

    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?

    Keep the fairings on.

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