Since i have officially parted with actual money from my wallet, it's time to officially kick off my naked conversion.
I plan to post many pictures and ask you guys a lot of questions. This is my 6th bike, but have done very few mods on any of them.
I sold my 2003 CBR600 in 2006 and went way to long without a bike. I picked up a 2005 FZ6 back in August for $3k. The bike has 2000 miles on it and is in pretty good shape. The fairing had a bunch of cracked plastic, and there are some signs of scraping on the right side.
Here's a few pictures. I need to take a better full body shot.

I've been going through all the threads on the naked conversion and have ordered some stuff to get started.
First is the FZ1N headlight. I have the parts on order from Chris at FlatOut Cycles and hope to have the parts soon.
The parts list and info is posted on another thread @ http://www.600riders.com/forum/fz6-streetfighter/13504-fz1n-headlight-parts-list-2.html#post174015
I also picked up:
- FAZR6 FE kit
- 1 x Bar Ends / Handlebar Caps (MA502) = $35.00 @ PJs
- 1 x Rizoma Sportline Billet Grips (GR205) = $59.00 @ PJs
I was going to go with the Rizoma mirrors but decided to try an experiment first. For $35 I got a pair of Mirrors with turn signals in them.

Has anyone installed anything like this on the FZ6?

I also got some new levers that have mirror mounts in them. Not sure if this is best idea, but I can throw away a few bucks. They were cheap enough.
Anybody have thoughts on best way to fix dent in tank and the other frame scratches?
I also plan to paint the tank black, and ordered some black radiator covers.
