Ah, I suppose thats a similar sort of thing to the tax disk that we have to display in the UK. We have to pay £62 a year for this.

Yeh i got a 98 r1 race mould made a unit then chopped it up and added more fibre glass to meet the sub frame. Got it fitting right and then made a mould from that.

The colors look good. Just need some graphics to make it stand out. Still a good looking bike though.

Would you be interested in making another rear seat piece and shipping it to the states? If so how much? I am having a hard time finding anything local.

HI Ruftech the cost of shipping from this end is insane and just not worth it for you.A better bet would be to try sharkskinz or airtech they make units like mine a 98-99 r1 unit does fit but you have to move or modify the radiator bottle.

Cool, Thanks for the info. Your bike does look good by the way.

Thanks mate.I'd love to be able to sell u a unit but i'm not into ripping people off.There's to much of that in the motorcycle scene.If you get a unit and have any problems pm me i'd be happy to help.

I really appreciate that. I will let you know if I come up with something.

fbr750r that is a very awsome bike. The body is proportioned and looks factory designed. I have one question... what wind screen did you use? It looks more sleek than the original but it also seems to stick out at the ends by the mirror mounts. Still looks much nicer than the orignal windscreen which seems to sit higher than the sleek one you have.

Hi CSMEZA , well the screen is a stock one but i cut it down if u want to do it its not that hard to do. Take all the screen screws out and slide the screen down until it hits the instruments once you've done that you'll see how it sits redrill the front holes in the screen (the ones above the head lights)THe only bit u have to cut out is where the mirrors bolt to but do not use any power tools to do it the screen will crack use a soldering iron or like wise and melt it out . REdrill the rest of the holes and your done . I tried alot of after market screens and didn't like the look of any of them thats why i did this mod i should have done it fist and saved my money. If you do the mod and have any ???? just ask mate i'm happy to help.Oh and thanks for the compliments on the bike.
