I'm no real lover of the exhaust placement but still love the rest!
Find the tail better then the older ones he got.

Mario is one talented ****!! 8)
Damn that VTR is hot. A really like the modern treatments on both ends. mmmm, braced stock swingarm too.
Probably the ultimate VTR but a stock shock? WTF? Maybe he ran out of money.

Re: The New Mario Nava Fairing
Yeah, it looks like right foot clearance would be tight. Those pipes look to be real close to the rearset. A compromise design but very nicely done!
Somebody get a price list! (gulp)...... :wink:

Damn that is nice. The exhaust is a little funky looking on the right side though. The left side is purty. Also like the dual headlight set up.
Is that still the stock tank? Cause it looks bigger to me. Could just be my eyes though.

Very nice. That carbon/kevlar is fugly, though. I'd like to see it all in carbon fiber. I like the 916 style undertail exhaust, but the twin pipes hanging out in midair on the right side stick out like a sore thumb. If he can design bodywork that aesthetically pleasing, he can surely route the pipes a little cleaner than that. I agree with Chris, an RC51 style exhaust arrangement would look good.

Well I got a response from Mario...the new bodywork is still in the development stages. Those pics are proto-type. The rear is from a R1, and the headlights (which I thought about mounting on my sharkskinz in the past) are from a scooter (probably Peugot, at least thats who I got prices from & it look identical)
Sub frame is custom made to fit the R1 tail, out of steel not aluminum.
Plans are in the works for mass production soon ans there will also be a option of a race upper.
They say the kit will be more expensive then the previous one (dont know the cost of that)
Just so everyone know
