Unfortunately the sun didn't come out today so the full effect of the paintwork was lost. But I have included a couple of pics that were taken before today so you can get the idea. I realise that not everyone will like it but if everyone liked the same things then life would be a bit boring. So feel free to comment good or bad as you won't change my opinion of this bike. I absolutely love it!

At the moment there are 4 things I wanna do to it to finish it off. Maybe someone knows how I can go about getting them. They are:

1. Carbon fibre effect petrol cap.
2. Chrome effect crash bobbins.
3. Power Commander.
4. A full exhaust system.

In my opinion the last two things go hand in hand because you can't change the exhaust without getting it re-mapped. Maybe someone will correct me on this. Can anyone recommend a good exhaust system? I'd rather not change it to a single sided exhaust though.

That is very different than the usual modified stuff you see about. Subtle but noticable at the same time. I like it........

You know what? That is exactly what I thought the first time I saw it.

as you say life would be boring if we all liked the same thing, your bike is not for me, the red on the forks, wheels, and arm, and the seat just shout "i'm free" to me.

Gold fairing bolts, dont do it on the silver look, and the frame plugs and scrooms need to be the same colour.

seat looks comfortable though.

and i dont like the xx rear lights

my initial thoughts were what an abortive attempt at making a bike look better, although plenty of work has been done it looks fucking awful but it's nice the 'special' people had a project to do while dosed up on LSD.

It wouod be boring if we were all the same, or so I thought. I thought my fazer looked grim until I saw that, even Russes abortions look better than that and Taffy lookes positively classy in comparison. Better than a red on though.

Attached pic of Fazer for ideas for him.

blingbird makes it sound reasonable, uttershitbird is more accurate, so Wolfie said.

I may be wrong, but looking at that photo I think I can see a slight fault in the engine block. You might want to get that checked out to be on the safe side.:dunno::dunno:
