Post by: Slide Panda on February 02, 2010, 09:31:56 AM Top one... I've always though the bottom side of Monsters was a bit ugly, so I'm pro pan - and that white with red looks sharp
Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: stopintime on February 02, 2010, 09:34:22 AM If it was an option I would vote RidingHouse belly pan. Painted partially white and black.
Geoffduc has one - it's magnificent and suits the watercooled bikes perfect [thumbsup] Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: swampduc on February 02, 2010, 09:37:49 AM If you're keeping the udder, then no belly pan. If losing it, then the bp will look great.

Geoffduc has one - it's magnificent and suits the watercooled bikes perfect [thumbsup] I knew someone would chime in with that - and while I do agree that the Riding House BP is the best most awesomemest belly pan out there, it is unfortunate too much $$$ to shell out for me. Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: Popeye the Sailor on February 02, 2010, 10:05:07 AM Why on earth would buy a naked bike then put bodywork on it? I vote nothing.

Post by: superjohn on February 02, 2010, 01:23:37 PM I like the white as long as you can match the pearl paint of the tank. If not, then nothing.

This is what I would do too.Geoffduc has one - it's magnificent and suits the watercooled bikes perfect [thumbsup] stopintime - I don't know how you keep track of who has what mod. You either have a crazy good memory or a spreadsheet I swear. Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: RVA Duc on February 02, 2010, 03:13:12 PM Title: Re: What Say You?

Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: COP TZR on February 03, 2010, 06:23:22 AM tail chop and color match belly pan.
Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: tonkoshala on February 03, 2010, 07:15:58 AM White if you plan to chop the tail. If not it looks better with it off IMO.
Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: ICON on February 03, 2010, 07:45:07 AM Tail Chop, air scoop's and call it a day. [popcorn]
Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: arai_speed on February 03, 2010, 10:01:33 AM Thanks for the votes and reply! The color-matching would not be an issue - it's only an issue in by bad photoshop file.
This particular mod is strange - when I see it on other bikes I always like it, when I photoshop it on my bike i'm kinda of "eeehhhhh not sure if it works". Tailchop is on my todo list. Airscoops are not my thing. Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: dropstharockalot on February 03, 2010, 10:31:12 AM Diggin' the white.

Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: causeofkaos on February 10, 2010, 07:02:59 AM you are going to spend quite a bit of time cleaning what started as white bp.
i might be doing a bp on my m1100 after doing my last oil change and taking a good look at how much abuse the filter is subjected to, the fear of a rock hitting it at just the right angle and rupturing ( insert out of control wreck ) has me looking at this mod as function over form. thats all i have to say about that. Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: vossy on February 10, 2010, 05:46:42 PM naked all the way
Say NO to the belly pan Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: geoffduc on February 10, 2010, 07:22:01 PM Go for WHITE it look's the "Dog's" 8)
I know that some of you guy's prefer the naked look and I some time's look at my bike and think it would look better without the belly pan but after all the trouble and expense that I went to I'm afraid it's saying on :'( [coffee] Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: kopfjäger on February 10, 2010, 08:46:14 PM Get rid of those ugly ass pipes first. ;)

Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: Bones on February 11, 2010, 10:15:44 AM i would definitely do white, but after i paint it, I would put some of that 3M clear vinyl paint protector stuff on it.
will make it a hell of a lot easier to keep clean and will prevent a lot of paint chipping from debris. Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: CCEMN1 on February 11, 2010, 12:20:35 PM Why on earth would buy a naked bike then put bodywork on it? I vote nothing. I always thought the two coolers hanging in the wind, off the front of the bike, kind of disfigured it a little, so I really like the white pan. Kinda ties everything together more aesthetically.Title: Re: What Say You? Post by: kopfjäger on February 11, 2010, 03:20:50 PM please explain ??? [coffee] Side by side pipes, stock or otherwise make the bike look squatted down. imho ;) |
