Well, I finally got back at it and the body is almost done. Tank has been modified along with the frontend and while fitting my old "streetfighter" lights into the fairing, I noticed moisture in one and a bug in the other (what can I say, there were a good deal...)
In any case, I decided to change directions with the lighting and upgrade a little...got a couple of these a few days ago
Which has lead to this...
I had been searching at a couple plastic supply houses for the perfect abs tube that would fit the 2 1/2" projector beams and was striking out. One of the salemen did some checking and found that standard black abs plumbing pipe was compatible and could be plastic welded to the fairing material. Of course, ABS plastic pipe comes in 2" and 3"...not 2 1/2" but as luck would have it, a 2" coupling is just large enough to fit the lights perfectly...SCORE! Let me know what you think.

Yeah your right, it techinically has been years, but it's gone from stock faired bike to naked streetfighter wanna be to the most recent incantation. This is it man, this is the final version for sure (I know famous last words). I've already told Sarah that if I start to change it again once it's all painted to MAKE me sell it.
