I'm not one tor slather a bike in CF, but I think a carbon hugger would be a nice finishing touch to my Streetfighter.

Anyone have a source for less expensive, but decent quality CF products?...the DP, Shift-Tech, and MotoWheels stuff is too over the top for me.

I have several pieces from Shift-Tech and the quality is absurdly good.  I've seen some real sh#t from other vendors, even from DP on some older stuff.  Motowheels resells a brand, I forgot which.

"Yelling out of cars, turning your speakers out the window to blast your music onto the street, setting off M-80 firecrackers, firing automatic weapons into the airâ€"these are all well and good. But none of them create a merry atmosphere of insouciance and bonhomie quite like a revving motorcycle.

If you're not going to go with something like Shift Tech then don't do it at all. I have a piece that I replaced on the bike that the former owner had on there. Night & day. If you can find a nice piece of plastic that's better than some of the carbon offerings.
No modification goes unpunished. Memento mori.  Good people drink good beer.  Things happen pretty fast at high speeds.

It's all up to your will level, your thrill level and your skill level.  Everything else is just fluff.
