That Nose is BUTT UGLY!!
The tail piece might not look too bad.The lowers make it look kind of like a semi-naked bike.

I like the idea of the signals being integrated into the fairing.
Too bad I can't read chinkameese to figure out what the web page says.

Looks like a angery chipmonk with it cheeks full.
The lower faring would look ok if they had not choped it off and keped the wings.

I have no idea
what these prices apply to, but if I did my exchange rates right... it goes something like this
Yen vs. USD
¥1,398,000 = $11,510.90
¥98,000 = $806.92
¥89,700 = $738.58
¥60,000 = $494.03
¥100,000 = $823.38
¥60,000 = $494.03
¥8,300 = $68.34 (for 2)
¥6,300 = $51.87
¥20,000 = $164.68 (for 2)
¥8,000 = $65.87 (for 2)
¥10,500 = $86.45
Proving my American ignorance, I have no idea what the $11,510.90 is for. Total package WITH the bike? The rest of the numbers don't add up to more than $3800. Who knows? Maybe it's for differnt colors of the bodywork. Beats me. Even though AirTech doesn't have bodywork for the 12R, a complete street set for a 9R would be under $1000. I would guess OEM 12R bodywork would run a little under $3000 for everything.
BTW, that bodywork ain't quite my cup of tea. I do remember seeing something like that before though. A long, long time ago (was it at your site, Jeroen?). Somebody (I think in Europe) molded ZX11 turn signals into his 12R fairing.

Easy as pie...lol
Cool idea with the body work. Shows some *ZX11* influence. Would make oil changes a *breeze* though!!
I would be interested in the upper if the price were reasonable.

I like the concept of integrating the turn signals...but their example is pretty stupid looking. There is enough extra plastic on each side of the snorkel to mount fog lights if you wanted to.
