Gixxer body conversion pics

[Nighthawk]

Just bored so I figured I'd post up some pics of how the conversion was coming along. Soon to be streetfighter no more

pics fixed

Is it snowing there or something ? Sorry , it's just kinda hard to make out clearly what I'm looking at .

[Waltari]

So are you just putting the upper and tail on or are you doing some kind of complete conversion? md86 is right....a bit difficult to tell what you're up to with the fog photos

would be nice to see it with the pics fxed

[smoubara]

the tail looks good. can't make out the front . this site has alot of trick kats.

Are you putting the full fairings on or not? Looks pretty good like that, kinda wondered how tough it would be to do the full fairing

kinda wondered how tough it would be to do the full fairing

Not too bad...

[paradoxmd]

that ain't bad! i like the black and white. very nice.

Put down the camera phone and back away...seriously, you think you could get some better images so we could see how it actually looks?

[md86]

And when you said "not very hard" , how "not very " we talkin bout here ? I mean , is this a viable option for the layman looking for replacement fairings , or do you really gotta know your way around reshaping plastic ?

I want a pre 98 now. I love the way the first pic looks. Very nice

[Jbird2200]

Yeah, that looks pretty good. I dunno though, I think the first pics look more unique. You don't see anything like that out on the road. I would probably leave the full fairings off it were mine. Looks great either way, good work!

[RydeBye]

I want that front end to stick on my 98+

[Nighthawk]

Yeah yeah yeah I'll break out the digi cam when I feel like getting off my @$$ and doing it

"Not that bad" means (doing it the way I did) that you need some basic welding/metal fabrication skills. I didn't acutally change any of the plastic, but rather changed the frame of the bike to accomodate the new bodywork. I can tell you all about what I did if you're interested.
