heres a cbr 929 with a 954 motor and suspension. all the paint and powdercoat was done by me. the mods will start to stand out the more you look. this bike was a wreck when i got it. i powdercoated the wheels and case covers to match. its black chrome.

I like the headlights... dominators? The fork mounts are pretty slick too. I've been thinking about trying a dual round setup sometime if I get tired of the single on mine.

I like it all except the bars and mirrors.  I would prefer plain superbike bars, and bar end mirros, but nonetheless, that is nitpicking, I love it!

well the mirrors do need to be painted black i just havent done it yet but come on the mx bars are awesome. it had clip ons and do you know how much trouble i had to go through to fit them? top clamp, cables, new master from a 919 so i could have the mirror mounts and 919 clutch perch also so i could have the mirror mounts. but oh well, your entitled to your opinion. any way i did it because it pretty comfortable and i broke my back a few years ago so the lay down rideing position hurts. man thats the best part of the bike.

personally, I like the motocross bars.
I used to race MX and I prefer those bars to street bike bars.
It works on your bike, but I don't think I could get it to work on either of my bikes.
