pics cont.
The plan is to do a semi-streetfighter, I'm thinking of ditching the lower fairings, bobbing the front fairings, and keeping the side covers and tail. Lots of rattle can residue to get rid of on the frame The tires are junk LOL

You could put her back to stock (restore) as in fix whats broken like the fairings...ect.. and then (baby she'll fly !!) I just don't see the point of
bobba-tizing a perfectly good motorcycle. and you wonder why there aren't any around ? Maybe its the age thing (i'm over 50 ) just my rant and my 2
cents.Attached Files

I've done a complete resto on a 76 Honda, and the fairings on this thing are destroyed so I figure its cheaper to leave off the worst ones and try to make use of the rest

I'm not a fan of the streetfighter thing, either. IMO, the 1100 is a great looking bike originally and (like Kats in general) doesn't look good at all without the fairing. It just wasn't designed to be uncovered.
What parts do you need to go back to stock? Maybe someone on here has fixable fairings they could let you have cheap if you're willing to put the work into cleaning them up.
