You realise it's a woman's bike, yes?

Yes, I don't care

Here's another pic of my bike. Got the headlights working, got some turn signals on there, and also an Acerbis rear view mirror. The mirror is pretty shit but at least I'm legal. I'm really liking the bike how it is now. I can hear the engine better, it has a nice sound without the fairings. And I just like how it feels without fairings and a screen.

THIS is my bike. Nothing special, just my bike to drive to school etc

Got this nifty 250 and since then I laugh on the face of traffic jams:

Looking pretty good Michael. Naked bikes rule!

A cynic would say you probably dropped your bike and smashed the fairings up a bit

Not my cup of tea that kind of streetfighter modding, tiny twin spots don't do it for me, but yours pulls it off nicely enough. Have to say, though, it was better before

Well, I am just worried about how it looks to me, not what other people think of it, so it's all good! I've always loved the naked look and I'm happy with how it's looking. And my fairings are in perfect condition. I will probably sell them and end up having made money on the conversion.

By any chance do you have an account with bike forums?

Couple of pics and a vid of one of my rigs:

Due to poor cam placement, none of the videos do the sections justice. The one with me in it (first vid) was a rock garden on a steep hill. Just watch my fork. The one with my friend is a tight turn followed by a steep hill onto a bridge and the third is of him failing (he road the whole section then locked his front at the end). I love my C'dale. I also have an 8ish year old Fuji race (road) bike that I bought from one of my dad's friends for $120 and currently I'm working at getting a Jamis Komodo to do some DJ/Urban/Freeride stuff with.

Edit: Yes, I got my ass kicked for having the muddy tires on the nice rug.

Well my rear tire is done and I'm putting a new one on tomorrow so I figured I'd have a bit of stupid fun with the old one today!

As soon as the rain stops i'll get one sorted

Just got done flogging my 1990 EX500 at Summit Point Shenandoah this weekend. I'll have a pic or 2 to post later.

Finally got my knee on the ground, too. No pics of it to prove it but I do have one where I'm really really close. And that's really something on that bike.

Funnily enough, a guy and his 14 year old son were in the paddock next to me. As it turns out, this kid was the same exact size as me (5'8", 130 lbs), and all I could think was, "Damn, that kid is skinny as hell." He was on a 125 GP bike, something I'm also looking into getting for myself.

EDIT: And a video (not me): http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TYP2zJwYalk
