Who else likes the factory body?

[GAmedic]

I installed the factory rear mud guard today and I actually like it more than the fender eliminator kit that I had. Does anyone else keep their bikes factory or mostly factory?

 

[Bailey9r]

The kits can look "hacked" to me. Good looking bike there Bro.

I have rdden in enough rain in my life to appreciate the full rear fender.

Checked the calendar, not April 1...…..

It's a love hate thing.

I've loved the Hayabusa the first time I saw it at a bike show in Toronto when it was released.
Couldn't afford one then and it took me a long time to actually get one. I love both body styles but am partial to the Gen 2 I have now...

The Gen 1 is gorgeous! Trimming the fender to just below the license plate helps a bit and retains the fender to do what it’s supposed to. Some bikes have a really bad looking fender and license mount and light hanging way off the back. Those really need replacing.

I love the curvy lines but the tail looks too long at stock wheelbase. It really comes together at about 60-61 inches

The pic that Red just posted shows exactly how mine would look if I stretched my bike. The tail section flows perfectly with the back tire.

However, I like going fast through mountain roads so a stretch will not be in my future.

BMW K 1300's are longer than a Hayabusa ~ you will barely notice a couple of inches *

I have a factory mud guard . Touring / rain its what you want . I have slightly altered mine though removing the factory light , pushing plate up to the light position .

Your bike looks super clean and very tough stance ItsDooomz . What I really like most , is the less blockish swingarm , because of the opened up rear shock area , where the stock arm has enormous bracing . I see you are running no pillion peg mounts as I also don't . I sometimes wish someone made a plastic or some kind of neat lightweight plug , but still think the weight loss outweighs any real gripe about the open gaps though .

I changed my 08 but am leaving my 18 alone for the most part.

 

[Bumblebee]

This might sound a little out there, but I feel a rider completes the design of the bike-especially the Gen 2...add a rider in the crouch position and the lines are completed.

 

[08BusaKY]

I have thought the same myself...

My 05 is stock except for the Yosh exhaust.
