FJR Streetfighter?!

[Burns1]

I'm not sure if this has been posted before, but I kinda like this. And while I'm not into loud pipes, that exhaust note is intoxicating!

Not so sure about the sound, but I really like the way it looks.

Looking at that back tire says he's probably spending too much time on the slab.

more agressive than a mt10

Looks good - I like.

Each to his own I guess. They did do a lot of work to get it like that, if it makes them happy, good for them.

Interesting looks. I wonder how much it weighs after shedding all of the plastics and who knows what else?

What ever happened to "normal" looking headlights? The frowning robo-cop looking headlight turns me off.

Not for me but looks pretty well done!

I always assume "I wrecked it and can't afford to replace the plastics.."

Thats exactly what I thought too, lol

Calling this a street fighter is like peeling the wood grain stickers off a station wagon and calling it an F1 car. A Triumph Speed Triple right off the showroom floor would be cheaper and better in every way. Faster, better suspension, and over 200 pounds lighter. I suspect like most "street fighters" it was an owner who was too cheap to replace crash damaged plastic.

A damned sight better execution than most efforts. Someone posted something a long time ago about their "project" and, not unlike this one, it was more of a basket case than a finished project.

Up until the one in the OP, they all seemed like someone who had wrecked their bike and didn't want to spend the money to fix their ******.

I like this version of an ST1300 much beter:

Fugly **** IMHO but to each his own.

This. All that comes to my mind is "why"? They obviously put a lot of effort and money into developing the partial fairing replacement and redesigning the back half of the bike, but it's still going to be a 650lb pig. And shaving off the rear seat (ok, there is a postage stamp of a rear seat still), and getting rid of the side cases...huh?

[HyperPete]

I like it, but I wonder how much it weighs. It's still no streetfighter.

Huh? Yes it is. Look at it. It's a street fighter alright. It just fights in the Super Heavyweight Division.

Haha...I actually have no idea. Is a street fighter when they take the fairings and **** off an otherwise normal sport bike? Either way, it's kind of cool, but a lot of ugly. Not for me, but I'm glad not everyone is like me. That would be WAY too many ********!
