It's been a while and sadly I'm not real happy with my 72 Kawasaki tail. I tried to make it do to many things hence it does none well... It's not very comfy, the seat is too long (aesthetically speaking) but still doesn't fit two people, also the gas tank completely clashes with the lines and though I originally planned to fabricate a different tank I've decided it will be *way* easier to swap the tail again.
I also want to re-shape my bike this winter... I want to go even further out then I've already gone. Price is barely an obstacle though I'm not interested in changing forks or wheels. Paint and full powder coating is on the agenda and lighting may be on the list too. The bike will either stay naked or I might consider full fairings if I can find ultra-bizarre.
I want to build a show stopper, something no one has ever seen before... not some main-stream streetfighter but a one of a kind "break the mould" pHReAk...
I'm currently considering the following...
powder coated frame and swing arm lip-stick RED
powder coat fork legs, rear-sets and triple clamps black
I want the wheels 2 different colors but haven't decided what colors yet
A very small, cut down race tail (solo seat), probably or a mid 90's GSXR or late 90's F4i
2 tone paint (black being one color, the other is still undecided)
Dual exhaust?
I'd like input, if there's someone with automotive styling & design experience I'd definitely value your help... the same with you graphic artists (Quintin, that means you!! ;D )
