So, I added a few more accessories since the Pipe...











Corbin GunFighter and Lady Saddle $714

Hurricane Crash Bars $96

Puig Raptor Windshield $67

Two Brothers M2 V.A.L.E Carbon Fiber $359

The only thing I didn't install myself were the crash bars because they're on the motor mounts for the frame so, I preferred to have that professionally done.

Any better shots of the Puig? I have the plus and would like to see yours better as I have never seen that one.

Why was the seat so expensive? I went into Corbin and they customized mine while I waited and it was only about $400.

I got the $220 backrest for the wife and it had $46 shipping plus tax.

I haven't taken any but, this is a stock photo of it.

Honestly, the fit is sketchy at best and I'm debating returning it and holding out for the full fairing for the bike. Then I might get my stock seat redone in Cafe Racer styling to match the fairing.

Have you considered either the Dart Marlin or Dart Fly screen?

http://www.dartflyscreens.com

They come in 3 different shades of tiny from light to nearly black (which would look awesome on your bike). I originally ordered a Puig screen and then learned of the Dart Flyscreen before I received the Puig grom Amazon. I ordered the Dart before I even got the Puig and sent the Puig back as soon as I got it. You just confirmed what I had feared, the fit was a bit sketchy. Dart gives you high quality hardware made specific for the CB. It costs a little more, but you get a nice piece of kit as the Britt would say. BTW, these ship from GB, but is plenty fast to fly over the pond.

The Chic Design fairing is nice, but a bit pricier than either of the Dart screens. Either way you go, you're getting something made for your bike and you won't have any sort of compromised fit.

It looks like it mounts like the Puig Plus. I like the plus, but I have a Road Comet on order and am waiting for Mr. T to ship it.

Some have mounted the Puigs with the mounting bracket inside the headlight bracket and it looks a LOT better. Mine is mounted like in the pics above.

Yeah, I considered those but, I wanted to go cheap because I know in a couple of months I will be getting something like the road comet or the aluminum cowl from one of the Japanese sites.

I'll probably either get my stock seat modified or I'll order a Cafe Racer style seat by the end of the year as well.

I tried to mount it like that but, it seemed kind of forced so, I backed it just went with the outside mounting.

Where did you get the crash bars?
