Full Version: I like being naked sometimes

I recently installed new renthal low bars and had a puig windscreen on. After playing around with the cables, which was a tight fit with the screen in place I decided to remove the windscreen. I instantly fell in love with the look of the new bars and the naked natural look of the bike. Kind of the same feeling I got when I saw her on the showroom floor. So I decided I want to keep the naked look for a bit and off I went on a ride. I had the screen on for a bit and forgot what the naked bike felt like. I took off for the parkway and criused down to the beach at about 80mph. The wind blast didnt really bother me as I was wearing my full face anyway and my body felt good. I think the new position of the bars plus my Daytona cafe seat which is lower than stock helped quite a bit. I love changing things around here and there to keep feeling new and different. I was on the fence about getting the dart flyscreen and finally pulled the trigger this morning but after doing more research on it and feeling the naked feel of the bike again i decided to email dart back and cancel my order. Hopefully they will let me being it didnt ship out yet and wasn't processed yet. Ill keep my fingers crossed. I was not thrilled about the headlight being moved foward almost two inches with the gap it leaves and the fact that I cant just loosen the head light bolts and pull it off real quick like the puig. I figure if im going to ride some distance I can just temporarily throw on the puig. Bottom line is naked is awesome and I really love the look.
I forget, have we seen a pic with the new bars ?
That's me too. Love the naked look, but will throw a shield on if it's cold or if I'm headng out a few states away.
I remove my Puig once the weather warms. The CB just looks better sans screen.
I posted pics of the bars in the mod section under new Renthal low road bars installed.
