The final fitting turned out to be surprisingly tedious. Is this a common custom bike thing?

Right now, without the clip-on bars, white gel cowl, and screen,
the balance is a bit hard to judge, but I think it’s probably in a good position. (Subjective opinion.)

The tank gaps and handlebar turning radius are less forgiving than I expected, so the positions we can aim for are pretty limited. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A first-time experience?

A 250\/400 tank with a 1100 upper cowl just doesn’t fit the lines and shape.
At first there were so many mysteries that I had to research a lot online.

I realized why there are so few side-view photos\u2014I figured out the trick behind the image magic. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The upper cowl stays as is, and headlight beam adjustment is possible.
The seat is also removable with just one key. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Basically it’s close to bolt-on, so reversing it is almost possible. (Though not without some work.) <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Next is just a bit more wire bundling and installing the D-UNIT, and we’re done! (*^-^*)
