Fishy says: let's talk more about this bike...
what kind of person would do this... and more importantly, would you take technical advice from him (or her?) if they offered?

What would your reaction be?


Well lets see .....

1. all aerodynamic design has been taken off.
2. ram air design is gone.
3. added fuel for the ram air feature now makes it way fat on top.
4. any weight savings wont make up for horse power loss.
5. lighting is inadequate for nite riding / where's the turn signals.
6. running temps ? (improper air flow to the radiator)

there's probably more ..... but there's a start.

1. Those old setup cans hung in there for over 168mph plus. No problems.
2. Ram is with no air cleaner and that is a lot more cfm from the pre-ram up to the tubes and cavity of the inner air cleaners.
3. Lean and mean are the open ram chambers with K&N doing a nice job of keeping the dirt out of the ram. My stock A/C looks as new as the day it came out of the crate. Yah- HA-HA!
4. Flicks from side to side way lighter than a stocker and have yet to use the rear brake on Mule2. 7lbs. = 1HP. Say, I have a few less pounds is added HP.
5. A little more R&D on the headlight aim would help; granted this bike was for day use only [H/L law on] and a pinch in the dark if out too late. Winks are there and close-in at all 4 corners. Now the front winks are the top running lights inside the fairing.
6. Never saw the temp bar hit 4-bars if not once on a really hot day; it would match your closed off plastic heat exchangers is call it even; if not runs cooler running 2-bar when moving; 3-bars when at lights or stopped, then back to 2-bars within seconds if not a minute, tops.
7. Free flowing stock gutted pipe = Sleeper 4-in-1 being the faster flowing side. Wink-Wink! Muffler my bearing too is the option we get it on; I take it off.
8. Multi-Hacks on the fly with the flip of 5 toggles if not 7 total in operation there of; when the OEM A/C is not present. Winky-Winky!
9. Subless Mod with the stepper motor sitting outside with zero codes at the dash. These are old pics, btw.
10. One right wrist is to twist yer nuts off is come get some; bringing your pile of shit-14 up some can yawn run is give you a head start downhill... Feel my rear disc at the bottom of the hill is there I'll be waiting dare for you is why the handicap logo passing yer ass; being the nice guy I yam ah HA-HA!

OK,

I'm a fan of fighters. I have a B12 fighter, recently christened "The Singularity" because it sucks cash like a black hole. Your naked 14 is not a fighter, imo. You really need to cleanup the lines, lose the rocket launchers, add some dirty bars, hack the subframe and put on a proper tail. The plastics add some weight but I'd wager your centerstand weighs about the same. I'm thinking that it doesn't handle any better than a stock 14. It will definitely be slower unless you have some major horsepower to push it through the air without plastics.

My Bandit is a work in progress and only puts out 120 at the wheel currently, but it is a proper fighter. It weighs 67lbs less than a stock Bandit and when I remove the centerstand it will be around 75lbs less than stock with a 20% horspower gain with upgraded suspension on both ends. I'd love to see a properly fightered 14, but yours is not quite there, imo.

The bike is superlight, I think he dropped 100+ lbs.....
look at the tiny forks, swingarm, and brakes!
no headlights, no signals, catalyst panels everywhere...

no undertail/ inner fender, tail light etc.... looks like the rear is a shell beyond the seat is all!
