Completed naked conversion!
« on: 24 April 2016, 07:18:05 pm »
Now, I know this isn't to everyone taste, but I've done this because I like it!

Finally finished completing the naked conversion. Have had a bit of help from people on here that have done this before which has been priceless!

This is how she looks!

This is the closest photo i've got at the moment :





Although since this was taken, I have put the wires into some black flexible conduit to tidy them up.

The 1000 seems to look better as a naked bike than the 600.

Looks good. Just curious: why did you remove the fairing? I find bikes without some fairing (and a big top case) rather impractical, compared with the standard Fazer.

Most things done in a hurry need to be done again - patiently.

Yes, they are much longer than I anticipated. I'm going to order some with a shorter stem.

Go easy on me, it is my first attempt! :)

I assume you are referring to Keith's bike? Mine doesn't have any, just the standard grab handles.

I like Fazers, and I like naked bikes, so I thought I'd have a go at making a mix!

I've still got the fairings and the conversion is completely reversible - can be switched back in a relatively small amount of time, maybe just a few hours. So I can pop the fairings back on if I was to do a long distance journey and need a bit of a break from the wind. But for local riding, I like the feel of the wind! Do bear in mind that I ride only for pleasure and don't use the bike in the rain.
