Carbon fibre heaven

hi all
I have a guy who loves carbon fibre so much that he transformed his 07 600rr into this. Some will like it and some will hate it. you decide

it's a unique bike and i'd ride it, but def not my first choice..  is it real carbon fiber or is it wrapped in the fake crap??

there's a guy on the forum here that did the same thing...but even more so than that...he went so far as to have CF stator, crank covers, levers, everything....(i think)...also had a rearview camera...pulsating rear cowl lights, it was pretty trick...now...not MY choice...but cool nevertheless....you might be able to find him by searching...

Wow! .. if thats real fiber thats amazing! I wonder where he got all those fairings or if he did them his self?

Motorcycles should be colorful.  They are an expression of the good side of life, they are a reason to work hard and be productive. That thing looks depressing, kinda like an old BBQ.

i like what fingers had to say.... its cool but it would be something i would not want...kinda like what fishfryer said i think they need some color and life to them, not to say all carbon fiber isnt someones "life and color" but it is too dull for me....still definately cool

That pic is from Rockwall Honda. They sell the fairings. I know it is Rockwall because of the bike in the background. It is Gary McCoys' NSR 500. They have it for sell.

I have to admit that the full carbon fiber look is not as bad as i had envisioned.

Its cool... but the real purpose of the carbon is weight savings, and he still has that one million pound exhaust on there. It looks dope, but I think four grand could have been reallocated much more efficiently.

I think a lot of you guys saw my last thread <07 with 08 red lowers>. I'm a fan of Carbon Fiber if it's got a nice balance. When I bought my bike...I got it because it was pull me over, get the hot chick, I'm faster than you red. Carbon just adds that cool touch. An all carbon bike is pretty amazing..BUT....not for me

yea there is a website i cant remember the name but they offer carbon everything i saw it in a mag a couple of months ago

RSP -- I live in Rockwall and saw that same bike at the dealership here.  I thought it was actually pretty ridiculous looking and would be comparable to walking through the most dangerous part of town wearing a huge gold necklace and Rolex.  These bikes have a racing pedigree and to have all of that CF and a stock exhaust.  Totally nonsensical. 

I agree 100%. I also feel having passenger pegs and seat on a bike with a racing pedigree is "totally nonsensical."

Not my cup of tea. Some Carbon fiber, yes. All carbon fiber, not so much.

I wonder what a bike with ALL brushed aluminum fairings would look like??? I know it would be heavy and pointless, but I think that would look sick.

he needs to get rid of that huge fender and antennas and paint rear sets then I think it would look pretty damn good 

You can go to OPP Racing and pruchase Carbon Fiber, Carbon Kevlar, or Titanium Silver bodywork for your CBR.

WOW... not cheap

Carbon fiber looks ghetto when you do it for 'bling's sake. Especially like this, on an otherwise stock bike. When I see CF levers, tank pads and fenders, real or fake, it makes me puke a little inside...what a waste of money.
