i believe it was standard on 2000 750, or maybe it was put on as accessory at the time, but it came with the bike when i purchased it

To anyone who's been waiting for winter to do this mod, I say pick a bright and sunny Saturday and get it over with.  I'll have the pics up soon, but there's really now "how too" necessary.  It was rediculously easy, not to mention you can always put your bike back together in a jiffy if you run out of mod time.  There are two allen-head bolts per plastic cover, then a couple of wires on the right and three on the left for you to relocate.  The biggest issue I found was relocating (I have no idea what this part does, but the cable runs from the little box behind the cover to the spark plug) the little box up underneath the tank but it takes little more than about 2 spare hours and at least part of a six pack.  Zip ties are a dime a dozen.  Sit next to your bike, start cutting the stock ties and removing cable mounts, and get to work.  It doesn't look right?? Cut it and try again. 

I love how it opens up the right side so you can see the shock, the only thing I have left to do is get rid of that massive airbox/heatsink assembly right underneath the seat.  Does anyone know what exactly is that venting?  Could you run the heatsink somewhere else other than under the seat?  It seems intimidating at first, but it's all a bunch of baby steps.

P.S. - Make sure you reconnect all your wiring harnesses, unless of course you don't think need your speedo or your odometer  ;D ;D

The box on the left side under the side panel is the coil for the vertical cyl. The "heatsink" is your rectifier, (kinda changes the voltage from the stator to the electronics on the bike). The vent box is coming off of the crankcase behind the vertical cyl. and redirects the vented oil and air back into the airbox. The box is designed to trap as much of the oil as possible, only allowing the air back into the intake...

Superjetduc,
is that the 1098 fronnt fender you said before? Do you have other pics? side, front?

Any issues fitting them? I plan to do the same.

Thanks!

I like the "sans side covers" look.  Will go that route when I have the time (and a clue how) to relocate all the wiring hiden behind them.

The Gab between tyre and fender is a bit to big
