If Jere can make a lower cowl that is better (for example looking similar to the 12R's lower cowl), the side panel with the strakes can be replaced with a non-straked panel,
and then the frame, subframe, lower cowl, and that side panel all get painted the glossy black to match the rest of the black bike, it gets a replacement pipe, and it's
stealth'd, I think it will look OK.
I don't usually like for the frame to be painted body color even when body color is black, but in this instance I think it would pull everything together and give a sleeker
look which is needed.

Plus there isn't enough bellypan or something....
Just have to see once it comes out.... I can prototype that and pull new molds in about
2-3 weeks... and make parts right after...

I'd say that those shots were somewhere around Phoenix... too bad nobody got spy shots!!!
Notice how carefully Kawasaki matched the leathers to the blue bike... so the blue leathers
follow the paint and the black leathers follow the strakes???
I do have to admit the bike doesn not look any larger than a12 with a rider on board.

I had a guy tell me once that they can tell how fast something is going by examining
the depth of the blur of the background and a known distance, ie the measurement of
the bike... it would be interesting if he could determine the speed the bike was going
based on the pictures above.
