Hey Paddy!

Congrats on the birth of your baby mate! I was round Ben's checking out he and Sue's latest addition and they showed me the Polaroid of your little Pride and Joy. Beautiful!

Big congrats to you and your lady mate...................Sam

Oh - and I'll dig you out a good matt black Bird pic......

It looks good - even though they've copied the PMB colour scheme of my beautiful ZX12................the problem is keeping it nice..........I lived with my mate's RSV-R Mille for a couple of days and that was matt black - greasy finger marks played havoc with it.............I wonder if the Bird is the same?

Paddy,
Wot you have to bare in mind is that the bikes at the shows have had thousands of digits pawing them, mate of mine went to the NEC and said the matt black looked crap 'cause of all the prints, saw it again at the G-Mex when it was early and said it looked Brill, no paw prints......now.....how many people are yer goin' to let maul yer bike when you own it before you start breakin' the digits off!!!!!c7u8 :neenaw:

I was thinking exactly the same thing, I reckon that would look cool.
As for matt, go for it :yo: and no they don't finger print any more than any other paint, they are more a satin black when you get up close, not a blackboard matt.

matt black it is then boys

:beer:

I have now made up my mind, and matt black its gonna be,
Pete do you happen to know the colour codes of the black and silver used?
I also need some clock surrounds, can you help?
Also the wheels look gold as opposed to the champagne, is this right?
Jaws, I would like one of your screens will be in touch in the very near future! Cheers

Paddy ( with an armful of nappies `n`things).
