Here's my baby..
This is my baby.
There are several things I've done, and plan to do with it..
So far I've:
ditched the majority of the rear fender/flap
applied a carbon fiber ProGrip tank pad
ordered a dark smoke Puig double bubble windscreen
applied the traffic signal activator. haven't tried it out to see if it works yet though.
got a blue Joe Rocket Manta tank bag. was very much against the idea of that to begin with, but it's been very useful and I like the visible cell phone holder so I can see if I'm receiving a call that I can't hear.
ordering in the next 1-2 weeks:
Akraprovic slip-on
frame sliders
swingarm spools/sliders
matching rear solo cowl
GPR dampner
Power Commander USB
And within the next 3-4 weeks, I'm hoping to have all of the lower controls/rearsets powdercoated black to match the frame, and the wheels done in bronze to match the forks, trees, and calipers. I was debating between black, and bronze, and I think I'm really leaning towards bronze the most. I was also considering trying to see if they can powdercoat the rim of my gas cap/lid where it's sort of a dull aluminum. I think that would really accent the rest of the bronze if I did that.
OOH! I almost forgot all about it..
I'm also debating on painting the rear fairings blue to match. I've seen a nearly identical 6R that had the lower fairings painted blue, along with the black piece right above the frame and below the seat. It made it look like a Ducati when the rear fender was removed.

Re: Here's my baby..
Maybe I'm the only one in the world that sees Ducati when I see that picture, but that's what I see. Now imagine it with a solo cowl instead of a rear seat.
The blue cowl (as mentioned in my other thread) looks like this:
