    Too cold for me! I am not wanting to bring my bike back out till I do the overhaul on it to make it look all pretty again.

    This is what she looks like now. You can see it's missing the lower fairings, front fender (which is one it now), and the upper fairing is cracked in the corner.



    And this is the goal:



    Since a new aftermarket fairing kit is $400+/-, I figured that would be better than trying to find the missing/broken pieces. It is a 10+ year old back and I am hoping to have it looking new again for next riding season.

    Agreed.

    I refuse to invest in cold weather gear and I refuse to not be a pussy.

    Hahaha, I understand completely. I started riding when I lived in Arizona. It took me a couple years after I moved here to get acclimated to winter riding. If the temp is above 45 and the roads are clear I get out though I don't head west.

    Hope you all have safe rides in '17!

    Well I've been working on this thing the last month and half and it is finally looking the way I want it to. Slowly but surely, bringing it back to life.

    Looking good.

    I sold my ZX-14 and wish I hadn't.

    It'll be replaced, hopefully this year.

    Thanks! They are a great bike. It needed a few things to get to where I wanted it but now that it's there, it rides like a 1400 should. I took out the butterflies out, dropped a tooth on the front sprocket, full exhaust, PC-V and now it's faster than a cheetah on cocaine. It brings a big smile to my face each time I twist the grip.

    Good looking bike. I'm hoping to get out for a ride tomorrow.
    No longer accepting new Trust clients. Pretty much out of the law business completely.
