Show ready
Just looking for some honest opinions on my bike. Positive or negative. I plan on going to some bike shows and don't want to be laughed at for entering. I know can't compete with other bikes on here, but in in RI I dont see bikes like that.
Also if I do enter should I keep the fairing on?
And this is good excuse to post more pics

Enter it bud. You can chase your own tail around for the perfect look. IMO your basics are covered to give your ride her own look. Sure you can find a crap load of bling to add, but those are small details that may or may not change the game to your bike. Only thing that I would change is the AC...looks to much like stock, but that's just me. Btw don't let NC get a hold of this thread...he will cost you a lot of $$$:P jk!
Worrying about what others think...don't worry about it bud. Some our egos and personalities are reflected in our bikes. If you are satisfied on it's current state...show it! I know we can be a little competitive in the community...bottom line, we all have beauties to be proud of. If we are mod'n only for the sake of trophies....something is wrong. It's about what our rides mean to us including riding them
If you do get a trophy...bonus! If I were to a judge a show...it would be based on the owner vs. his/her bike. Not so much the endless bling.
My 2 cents bud.

You should enter it and you should do fine. Is your motor and tranny stock? I know sometimes they like to see a little bit of muscle along with a pretty face! It don't matter what any one says anyway Dude. It's your bike and if you are happy thats all that matters!!! I think its a sweet sled.

Looks great! Leave the faring imo. The only comments would be to remove reflectors, and perhaps the detach posts on the struts and passenger boards. Boards may look a little out of place with a solo seat. Then again, they may fill that area up nicely. Sweet ride for sure....
