Open to ideas and input, i wont get butthurt  how she was before:  So far I have: Removed fairings + gauges I put a stubby screamer pipe on to replace the yoshi can, it looked out of place Painted the tank tail fairings and wheel fairings satin black Did some accent black and white painting Exhuast painted with super high temp BBQ paint complete wire tuck, and had to extend the headlight wire. This is how she is sitting now:  I have a headlight to put on next and my bar end mirrors are on the way! Last edited by dagg92; 07-31-2012 at 01:09 AM.. |

| Permit Joined: Apr 2011 From: lynnwood I Ride: 94 cbr F2 (very modified) | keep going man! If you need more ideas go to customfighters.com excellent forum for knowledge and such. Just be aware there are some more roughneck hooligans there, no real mods policing the joint so if you offend easily stay away....and use the search function before starting a thread. You can lurk and gather info about everything with out really interacting if that's your bag. Realize that most questions have been asked and dealt with in some thread or another it just takes time to find it. This is an amazing build of a great looking F2 http://www.customfighters.com/forums...ght=knifemaker His is a very slick looking bike that is super impressive, or you can go grimy like mine    paint job is rattle can, same with the clear. Bottom half of the tank is pray on bedliner. Fabbed the fenders up (one recently broke). The original owner did the fab work on the subframe before I got her, but she need a ton of TLC to get her running properly, as well as some electrical stuff I had to iron out. I say be different tear it down and get dirty. An F2 is a great bike and there is a ton of cool stuff you can do to it to make it one of a kind! |

If you are planning to go that way I can sell em to you for cheap, say 30$ Ill even ride out and deliver! they are gunmetal I believe....i'll have to check again. There are some scratches but i was planning of painting them so it didn't bother me any. PM me if your interested. |

That clear coat turned out nice, I think I might get some clear and go over everything actually. Thanks for the offer but I like the stock handlebar height. That seat looks comfy |

As for the paint.....its a fine from a far but far from fine sort of deal  Works for me though, at least I don't rub paint off if I dribble gas on it like before she was painted | |

 weld some washers to some bolts.....put em in your headers right before the mid-pipe. I have a 9" micron with the guts ripped out and its all good for me. stock setting for the fuel mix screws is 2-1/4 turns I believe.....mine with the stumpy exhaust is all the way closed and I still pop a bit on deceleration. Hope that helps some. | |

A custom high mount or undertail exhaust system would look cooler anyways. | |

I spent a long time in prep work where it counts and each piece has about 10 coats or so. | |

 They have these new things called mufflers that create some back pressure, increase power, and also keep the bike from sounding like crap!?  | |
