Any ideas? I really like the look of the TT except for the old school headlight. Kind of ruins it for me.. How could the front be modified to look better (without spending tons of money)?

Well, if you're handy it won't cost a lot. But it won't be easy.

What I'd do if I was to change TT's front is get a race fairing and fit 2 round headlights, but that wouldn't be an easy job. You'd need to make a new fairing/headlight stay

How 'bout a headlight gel (tint) to match your bike's color? Or repaint the plastic to deemphasize what you don't like about the front end?

I always thought it would be a lot of fun to reroute the intakes to a central location and use the rocket launchers for projector headlight housings. I never did anything about it, though.

Pete2, I like it! Would the S4 headlights fit the TT fairing stay with a little work?

I actually want to put 2 cones/cylinders in them with red tips that look like rockets.

Oh and some plumbing pipes coming out of the fairings to look like machine guns.

A friend thought Electroux badges would look pretty good on the nozzles, too.

There is a "machine gun" kit for nitrous purges.. my plan had been to hook a purge up with a split tube 1 to each side and have a blue LED back lighting it, use the flash to pass trigger to shoot em off. Zex has a kit for $100 and then you just need to get a small bottle. Id probably fill it with CO2 or something though so its cheaper...

Here is the kit in action:

I might still do this before next year but.. just a warning in case anyone tries. The main concern is figuring out a way to be able to use the kit while moving and not having to worry about unmetered nitrous blowing into the air box

Would probably have to disconnect the intake tubes and angle the real intake elsewhere. Or only use it when not moving.
