This is my '04 all in black hehe! I've got woodcraft clipons, 5 3/4" H-4 headlight, after market speedo, red wheel tape, led tail light, dyno jet kit, foam air filter pods, pirelli sport demons, debaffled cans, zip-tie throttle mod, bar end mirrors, oh yeah and a home made coolant resevour that looks like a pipe bomb

. It's a work in progress but ive always liked the street fighter/cafe racer look, so this is the result. What do ya think?

MKlein3004 · February 25th, 2010, 09:38 PM

again, i am not a huge fan of nakes bikes, but this is pretty good looking. Good job man.

pinkard129 · February 25th, 2010, 09:47 PM

Thanks, that really means a lot to me that i'm able to get a compliment from someone who isnt too crazy bout this particular look. I appreciate it

ninjaman93 · February 26th, 2010, 01:02 AM

this looks good enough to make me want to start doing the same thing to my bike. looks really nice

Cedilla · February 26th, 2010, 10:07 AM

I dig it. It looks like its got attitude.

Come to think of it, it sort of looks like an old Duc monster.

2WheelGuy · February 26th, 2010, 10:18 AM

I really like it. You've cleaned it up good. I'd Bondo the tank smooth where the fairing used to go.

JokerSeven · February 26th, 2010, 03:02 PM

I like it alot. It has attitude !!

mikedabike64 · February 26th, 2010, 03:11 PM

looks real real good and it sure does look like a little duc monster. how does it run and handle?

Snake · February 26th, 2010, 04:07 PM

The bike looks great naked. Looks like a cafe racer.

pinkard129 · February 26th, 2010, 05:54 PM

i gotta admit that the monster inspired me a lot to do this. i like the way you cant really see anything in front of you but the front tire and the road. as far as handling, of course a lot more wind, but its all good. the clipons is a furhter strech than i had imagined it to be, but i like it a lot and it makes it more fun to ride for me. even at 5'7" with the clipons am a lil close to my knees, so hopefully soon ill be able to get woodcraft's rearset. i think it moves the controls and pegs back 3" and up 1" if im not mistaken. thanks for all your input, im pretty proud of it and how it turned out

DEXSPEED · February 26th, 2010, 06:21 PM

look's clean!

pinkard129 · February 26th, 2010, 07:30 PM

that was one of my main objectives, thanks

MKlein3004 · February 26th, 2010, 07:33 PM

the more and more i look at it, the more it starts to grow on me. looks good man.....again.

Momaru · February 26th, 2010, 07:49 PM

Very good looking streetfighter conversion! Would love to see more pics, esp of that 'home made' coolant reservoir. Saw one made out of a converted Red Bull can not too long ago that made me do a double-take.

pinkard129 · February 26th, 2010, 08:08 PM

ill get more pics up soon, hopefully tomorrow! im in the middle of moving but ill get it done hehe

pinkard129 · February 26th, 2010, 08:11 PM

funny thing is all this started with a DIY fender eliminator and the madness grew from there. kinda like tatoos i guess, its hard to stop apfter you get started

cnichols79us · February 26th, 2010, 10:56 PM

It's also HARD not to get inspired by ANY Ducati, the Monster Especially if your going for this type of bike. You did a great job! Best Naked 250 I have seen so far!

I stopped back in to look at it again. I was telling my brother about it lastnight. I'm trying to talk him into it, he has on '07.

I have to agree with Jeff. Its the best naked 250 I have seen.

pinkard129 · February 27th, 2010, 11:38 AM
