Hello to all M 50 riders.
I am preparing to mod my M 50 2008 yellow and black (and charcoal silver) with a Clear windscreen and a custom microfairing and perhaps a custom Chin spoiler.
My first M50 was the 2007 Midnight metallic blue. I modded it so much you could not tell it was an M50 (nearly).
This Yellow and Black has been dubbed the "Bumble Bee". I want to dress it differently than the 07. A whole new look.
The plan is to go more sport bike style than cruiser. As we all know the M50 has the power and looks of a muscle cruiser but a sport side that can't be denied. I want to highlight the painted plastic faired side of the sport bike look.
I will design some Chin Spoilers and Micro Fairings and submit them for your response and consideration.
Also, with regard to the Micro Fairing my plan is to use a standard sport bike windscreen from a Suzuki aftermarket product family and fit it to a custom fairing we will make in our facility. My goal is to allow the Chrome Speedo of the M50 to be fully seen while covering up the wires and cables from front view.
Also, I am considering making a filler dress plate like the Harley and Vulcans have that hids those wires and cables.
Can anyone begin to comment on if they would be intersted in these items for their bikes?
This is not a product I can make available just yet.
I have a local motorcycle painter who is very good. I hope to employ him to paint my parts to custom match to bikes and offer custom air brush and art work. He has painted for Bell Helmets and done helmets for famous music artists and Nascar types for years.
Thank you for the help.
