Another Naked/Cafe Ninja
Yahhh!! Finally decided to go the naked route. When I bought this bike the person I bought it from cracked the front fairing and it was barely hanging on. So it was either get a new front fairing or go naked and I am so glad I went with naked. Thank you @Chicagobob @Jono for answering my questions and thank you especially too @Motofool for helping me get the bike running. It's definitely not as nice as chicagobob's but I absolutely love it!
And yes, that last picture is Instagram filtered. Lol! |

I think the tank on pregens lends itself better to a naked look.

I think so too but I have to say that Ivan pulls it off really well though. |

May I ask what did you use for speedo and tach? And do those bar end mirrors fold in? I want to do something similar to my ninjette, but I usually park her in a narrow hallway and it's common that I scratch the handle bars on the wall... |

My bar end mirrors don't fold but you can get some on ebay for really cheap. If you like the look of the bar end mirrors you should get them. I really like mine. But like you were saying with your situation, I would look at mounting mirrors on the perches like ChicagoBob did. |
