that looks like gixxer 1k headlight. am i right?
Originally i wanted to buy it, but later i went for dual 4" from Buell. now i am having second thoughts
Just curious about how you think the wind feels on your newly naked bikes. Does it seem less than when it comes ripping off the top of the windscreen on the stock version?

These headlights are all custom made by MC Concepts... they have their own molds... might look like similar to a gixxer headlight though I dunno...
The one I want is on the previous page of this thread... the one on the proto above does not look great to me

you`ll feel the wind much more on the naked, obviously!
160mph with the windshield was fine, almost easy... 140 on the naked and it starts to become real hard ;) but who goes that fast anyway?
OK i just ordered my new headlight (since I am over the Acerbis, which has poor quality)
This headlight comes with turn signals, but since I already have the Rizoma Track 01 turn signals, I am thinking of using the turn signals as running lights, maybe running blue pod lights... anyone know if it's feasible/legal?

Here is how it`ll look:
Which did you order?

220km/hr is no hassle on the fz6n
yes its not as comfy as a faired bike, but unless your fairly weak, you will cope easily with the wind.
im 6ft and 100kg and can sit almost upright at that speed.
knees locked in and arms braced of course
only time you need to tuck in on a naked is when its fking cold and you want some of that sweet engine warmth....

He's from Turkey and he's a student in LA. He's going to look into it while there, and hopefully post some info in this thread soon
That last headlight looks like something from Transformers (the movie)
cool I`m looking forward to seeing what he finds... I spent quite a lot of time searching for headlights online (on US and EURO sites) and that's really the only cool one (for me) I could find...
Transformer? lol I haven`t seen the movie yet, but I think it looks bad ass! a little expensive but we live only once!

hehe that's funny, I said the same thing: up to 140mph (around 220km/h) is fine, after that, you better hold on to your handlebar!
But one big plus for me is: I am more mellow when I ride now... you feel the wind more, which means you feel the speed more, which means you ride slower... and in turn you get higher mpg (which is weird because I thought it would decrease after going Naked)... I used to get 150miles on a full tank (without using the reserve) with fairing, and now I get 175miles...
