Nice bike....... But a set of forks and a few other deleted parts does not make a streetfighter... Sorry

streetfighters were and always will be stripped-down sport bikes. either the fairings have been trashed beyond repair, or the owner has decided it would look better without them. wikipedia can help here, even though i generally don't recommend it..

'tis a fine bike, but 'tis not a streetfighter, english.

i dig it! love the front end of course and the brakes. i think the tail end and seat could use a bit of TLC but over all for a CX that is unreal!!!

thank you all guys for the repleys and some of you have right about streetfighter issue so im thinking to put a front musk and light from cb1000 r the new one and do some work with the tail,or leave it just like it is now with some covers for the rear seat and call it naked classic bike?
anyway i like my bike as it is or as the other way,i ll send a video of running

i bet that sucker handles like it is on rails!!!! ya know in looking at the back end, if you cut out the over support on the back rails, then bolt the seat tight to the rear frame rails that would do wonders to clean up the back end and be very easy to do, plus then you can put the ladies on the back!

Whatever. It's obvious you put some work into it. The front end looks great, I dig the headers and what are those foot controls off?

+1 for Joe's seat mounting suggestion. I bet that would really clean it up back there.

I just wanted to note the forks, they look GREAT!! I cant wait till I have the time, money and knowledge to make this upgrade to my CX500 (soon to be cafe racer), I think it is the best looking set of forks Ive seen on an older bike, and I'm sure they handle amazing too. Excellent job and don t listen to all the haters out there, call it what you want, you could call it a chopper if you want, its still bad ass.
