DOesnt look as bad here...


I'm not gonna do this mod tho.. If anything, i'll cut the stock fairings + belly pan, or lightning front. Like the actual lighting front so i could put HIDs

On svrider.com a ton of people are using the buell dual headlights with a fly screen and there's kits you can buy that are pretty much bolt on dual headlights instead
I agree, if you are going to cut up fairings, get a rashed one off E-Bay, then you can sell your stocker (or keep it if you every want to sell it as stock again) and probably turn a profit.

The lights I bought for my fighter came from Northern Hardware and I paid $10 for the set. I have it set up as one on for low, both on for high. They work as great as the stockers!

Not sure on the Buell front myself, do you have a pic from the side?

OK, so here is another nasty CHOP of what i have in mind. Except that here i deleted the lower front part of the fairing. And i realized after i did it that i wanna keep it to keep the illusion of the front lower than the rear.



And this is the same pic before

Not a fan of the praying mantis look. Go with the buell set up or sell the bike and buy a naked version with FI.

It's your bike and all, but I'd recommend not modifying your front fairing. I think the naked, dual headlight setup looks beast(best) on these bikes. Throw on a chopped up belly pan and a dual headlight setup similar to the buell, and you'll be good to go, in my opinion.
