+1 on the camo. i love camo. so you're building a FZRXB12R600 bonkonhead or something. whatever you name it, i dig it! buddy of mine at work has a xb12r and i really like it (except its a harey engine, the fzr engine should be more reliable :-D ). keep us updated, and definitely more pics once you get some work done to her!

Please for the love of all that's holy don't do the R6 swap. You obviously have skill as shown from your cruiser build. I'm not against the R6 tail. It looks good and people have done a wonderful job on some of the swaps, but it's been done to death. To death I say! Pick some crazy ass tail that's never been done before (this applies to women too :king ) and go nuts.

I'm not a big camo fan but it's not bad with the pattern. Not just a spray different color grey's here and there.

Only thing I don't dig about that setup is the buell (or buell style) front. I say keep the tail stock style, add the belly pan and stop there. I've seen one other FZR with the buell front and it looked quite silly IMO. Also, A LOT of people have done the whole R6/R1/GSXR/CBR/Whatever the f%^k else tail mod. What you have going there is nice. VERY nice. I say keep it that way. Because right now it doesn't look like the direction a lot of other people have already gone. That's my my2cents

a little more work today while I'm waitin on the firebolt fairing to arrive. I trimmed the rear sides a little... might trim them some more but I'll have to move the coolant reservoir first. I've already relocated the VR and those relays to under the rear seat so the other side is empty.
