Just picked up a 4200-mile 06 S non-runner for $1300 last month. New airbox and throttle bodies + rebuilding the fuel pump had it running within a couple of weeks. I threw a $170 set of stock size Shinkos on it, changed the oil, coolant, brake fluid front & rear and fork oil, lubed the chain and it's been an awesome bike. Since I was still all-in less than 2K including registration fees it seemed rude not to start throwing look-at-me parts on it while the good weather is still here, so I sprang for some lower fairings, tail tidy, bar ends, a solo cowl and a Delk slip-on. I also found that my parts bike had a modded R6 throttle tube so I swapped that over as well.
Still waiting on several items to arrive this weekend, but I fitted the fairings and exhaust yesterday and here's how it currently sits.

I've been piling on the miles every day and having a blast with it, completely neglecting my VFR800 since this thing went on the road.
