Re: What should I do?
Full fairing stunters are the shiznet. Can't wait to have an F4I that nice. I have a 929 that I bought salvaged to stunt. I turned it into a streetfighter for I am just learning so less stuff to break. But I am also saving for an F4i that I am going to leave stock except for the cage.
Nice bike though!!

Re: What should I do?
here's the thing man.. you can sell your minty fairings for triple what youd spend on basic stunt parts.
i had the same idea with my 04 gsxr 600. it was perfect minty so i bought a wrecked tank and crappy fairings to use and store the original stuff. then i realized i was having more fun with it being a stunt bike and that i would probably buy a brand new bike rather then throw the original plastics back on.
besides, if you plan on NOT QUITTING stunting, whats the point of keeping factory plastics. the day you think your good enuf to risk putting them back on is the day you wad your **** up. dood you can sell a full set of mint plastics for $600-1000 easy. what im saying is you will make money buying replacement fairings cause even though it may sound like a good idea to keep your factory plastics for use later, you probably never will.

Re: What should I do?
ebay is the way to go. and some advise..
you can get boxes perfect for fairings for free. visit your local bicycle store, make a friend, and they should give you the factory boxes the bike came in for nothing.

Re: What should I do?
I got it all stripped down, exhaust cut down, and a handbrake fitting designed today. Now the bike won't start, I'm sure it is some wiring problem, I disconected the clutch and headlight and everything to take off the front clip. Anyone wanna break knowledge on the wiring, I wanna ride this thing tomarow and test out the new sprocket and handbrake!

Re: What should I do?
Ryan, I think bikes look like soldiers ready for battle when you set them up for stuntin. Then after ridin them for awhile, they began to look like battle hardened soldiers who've been thru war. It adds an unmistakable element when they aren't minty, like you actually ride and don't kickstand pimp. Just rock that s**t like a champ, remember merk steppin on a sportbike is way iller than the 450, 450's close but just not the same.
Damn that big bar kit is so ill on the XR I'm rockin **** like a champ now. Combos on the 50 are so fun. Hey when you get my extended brake arm for the back just send me one for the front instead.

I'll get you that brake arm out, just let me know what color. I should be able to get some Stunt Pegs machined up to fit the GXR in the next couple weeks too, they feel sweet on the f4i!
