After starting this project back in November, I've finally finished my naked project. The bike is a bit dirty because I just took it for a ride, but here are some pictures.....

Here's the link for the shield. It's the sport touring shield for the Buell Lightning. It really does a nice job of cutting some of the wind. I did have to make my own brackets for it though....

Your bike was what made me update mine. I have the same setup for the lights as you.

Why only one mirror? Is it bar mounted? I was wondering how I would make the throttle side mirror work with the master cylinder.....was that your problem also? Or just a style thing?

I'm still trying to figure out how to fit the mirrir on that side so it's actually a mirror that functions. I can mount it, but my shoulder would block it at the moment.

Cool looking. How is the wind protection compared to the stock fairing?

It's very good, which is nice. You do notice more wind hitting your chest compared the the stock setup, but it's definitely worth it. It feels like a completely different bike. I love it.
