My FZ8 mod

[Kevweez46]

I am new to the forum. I have explored the great photos and posts for a while but this is my first post. I have had my FZ8 (2012) for a couple of years, and though I love it, I always thought that it could be a little more aggressive looking. Here is the bike as it sits today. I still have to do a couple of things (taillights, rimstripes, and a stripe down the tank and tail), but I am very proud of how it turned out.

Looks nice. And welcome! What kind tail is that?

 

[Kevweez46]

It is an airtech tailsection for a ducati sport classic. Thank you! I knew generally what I wanted, look wise, but had trouble finding a cafe style tail that was wide enough, etc. This one seemed to fit the job perfectly, and it was not terribly hard to fit it and mount it.

Looks cool. I kinda prefer the sporty narrow High tail. Nice to see different things tho

It's different - I'll give you that, but I personally don't like it. The 'curvy roundness' of it does not match the hard angles of the rest of the bike.

It is for sure a departure from the stock look. I went back and forth between ole curvy roundness and a more angular (916 style, streetfighter custom style). I definitely considered that look as well.

Looks nice.
What did you do with the handlebars. I want drop bars like that
