Hi stuna,
Can you post some close ups of how you mounted the windscreen. I am thinking of doing exactly what you did and want to see how you did it.
Also, would you consider building/selling a copy of your peg extenders. If yes, how much.
Thanks
Same here....I don't like floor boards....

The shield is so wrong , the pegs are great idea , looks as if you used some angle iron and did a little bending and welding .
That seat , man looks comfortable . :thumbup:
My biggest grip is the handle bars , the angle is just to weird , was looking at replacing with Renthal Street Medium to get a better angle and be able to get a little reach backwards .
Looked at the extenders up and back ones , did you have to get new cables , brake line ?

well i do have to stop for gas at 200 milesI hope you have a dispenser for "Depends" on there.
And a medicine cabinet for Motrin, Aleeve and liniment oil.
the w/s may look $#$%%^ but im old enough to care more how it works , and that is does .
just a few years ago with a bad back and hips i though i would be done riding , as it hurt so bad . but back is fixed one hip is done. and im doing perty well with the other bad hip . 1 year old bike 10k on it . and i have two other bikes . you should see how odd my drz400 looks . big w/s and a russel seat . now thats a uuugly seat , BUT works so well :wav:
I put a set of these on my bike and love them. I have my front forks lowered about an inch. Had to take the clutch cable out of the zip tie but that was it.

Rox Risers, good to know, I've got a set on the way
I like some of the models of the Russell seats... I notice they don't have the 6R listed, just the FZ6... Did you use that as the ordering guide?well i do have to stop for gas at 200 miles
nice custom!
--I think that's awesome. You took a sport bike and made it your own. Lotta ppl do the same old same old but you made it comfy and functional. Good job man! I like it when ppl go their own way. It's your ride, you SHOULD customize it. So long as it makes you happy and you have fun with it. :thumbup:
