You want a 'full' chop or like me, a 'short' tail?

Richard your bike looks the "DOGS",I especially like the belly pan, what make is it?

I have a S4Rs tricolore with a riding house belly pan fitted which is a beautiful piece of carbon fiber but it just looks to big.

Are those some sort of hand guards??




Those are lever supports if you drop the bike. Here's a few more pics to see it better.

I hope you will never drop the bike (of course), because then you will realize that those things will support nada... NorDog had the right solution, they are fancy Rizoma thingies (totally useless).

They look like those Rizoma gadgets designed to keep the wind from pressing on your brake & clutch levers when you attempt to do the Kessel Run in 12 parsecs.

I thought it was handling that would allow that run cheeky I don't think they will provide their supposed/intended purpose with those levers though.

Nice bike though ... the red highlights really make it.

I just recalled that some of the guys at a place I used to work used to call my bike the Batman Bike.  Every time I see this picture I think "Now that's The Batman Bike."  Really like the look of it.

Like that light too.  That was one I was looking at before deciding on the MT01 headlight which I felt would fit better with the windshield fairing.

Thanks man!  chug

Thanks Betty. Let me re-phrase, its support for a TIP OVER (maybe). You guys are right, nothing can support anything on a  high or even a low speed fall.

Tip over may generate higher forces than a low side because of the free fall from vertical position, compared to low side where bike is already leaned over...


But back to the pictures.

Thanks. Just got the s2r for my wife, I'm a bit jealous. Ducpainter painted it and it looks awesome. bow down bow down bow down
I thought that looked familiar.

You should show another angle to show off the stripe.

i posted it in Ducs in the Wild also, but I thought its a great shot of my almost stock bike. The mountains make up for the redundancy.
