A true fighter cannot be bought as is, It must be created.

Manufacturer's make Naked bikes.


Yes you could buy a fighter off someone you has built it up. but wheres the fun in that.

The point is you cannot walk into a showroom and buy a fighter from a factory.

I think a street fighter by definition has to be made so I'm with greenie here.
The question is (for Neka) can you streetfighter a naked ? I would say yes, once you mod it and want to call it a fighter.
Can you fighter an old dunger (naked) ? Once again I would have to say yes, BUT I doubt that Gos would want to call the pearl a fighter. :wink:

A tuono is ballsy as all shit but it is still classed as naked, but if someone smashed an RSV and left the sides off that would make it a streetfighter even though it looked exactly the same.

Its all semantics anyway, just rip off the plastic to lose some wieght and ride the fuckers :wink:

When the 12 goes back together the plastic will be left off to lose weight, save cost and make me realise just how damn fast I am going , something the fairings hid too well :oops:
Just because you CAN ride, doesn't mean you SHOULD
