...Now to find a carbon fiber chin fairing for the bottom...

Check with Ghezzi-Brian. Their webiste has a lot of cool stuff under "Tuning."  That's a rather unfortunate choice of an English word for "custom parts." But I have a CF "belly pan" (that's what they call chin spoiler) from them and it's very nice. You could also buy a fiberglass belly pan and paint it matte black or grey to match the Scura bodywork.

They also make a CF rear fender (which is not as easy as the belly pan).

There's a thread about the rear fender on V11LeMans.com - it's had problems, been improved, still not perfect, but I like them because they look cool and they offer better road-spray protection to the lower shock mount - as compared to the stock plastic hugger fender, which funnels spray directly to the shock.

Excellent...thanks Scud.  I've always wondered if the name Ghezzi was somehow also a combo of something else plus Guzzi...seems like too much of a coincidence, headed to the website now. 

Just got my 2 new gold Rizoma fluid canisters (pretty good match to the Ohlins fork color) today to replace the existing plastic brake/clutch jars, hopefully they will not take too much tinkering to get them mounted.  These things are truly works of art.

I'll check out the chin spoiler...think that would make it look great...I've downloaded several of your pics a while back and noticed it on yours and it looks just fantastic.

Cheers!

You can see both Ghezzi-Brian parts in this photo. And if you look very closely, you can see a black Rizoma brake fluid reservoir - they are lovely.

Thanks Scud...that's exactly the picture I had downloaded a while back and to confess, the one that started my brain thinking about joining the dark side and getting a Scuzzi.  The chin fairing is sweet!

Your bike looks perfect...the black Rizoma's blend in nicely, I went for the Gold ones to add a little color up top, hope to have some free time perhaps this weekend to see how to fit them.

Submit To The Dark Side - Scura







That's not a dark side bike. I have dark side scooters (MP3s).   You need a rear car tire to be a dark sider.   :wink:

Oh no....more farkling ideas!  A set of Gold handlebars... Stop the temptations!  Very nice looking bike there! 

If I could fit a 305/35/20 on the back, I could exchange tires with the 911...but that's probably the only rear tire I would consider!  PHATTTT!!!
