the exhaust hangers are machined down originals seb, i'll be getting them powder coated satin black aswell as the rear subframe this winter. the tanks blue with chrome honda wings, the rear hugger is also blue.........i didn't want to have blue fairing lowers aswell, it would be overkill imho....i'm slowly getting there tho.
i also be putting on the blue calipers and new hel lines all round. oh and a pair of titax levers....

no i mean your can brackets mate, not the pillion hangers, sorry if i didn't explain to well lol

What about a carbon rear hugger and a blue lower fairing?

Have you thought about classic race stripes, front the front to the back one think and one fat, you colud do them in carbon wrap tape stuff

well i couldn't find what i was looking for on Google but here something similar

when i bought the bike,before my accident it was blue with orange stripes, properly painted. i do like the idea, it might be something i do with vinyl wrap at some point in the future..........

Pics looking good but you forgot to take one from above.

(:-})

I like the lowers in that colour as I think it sets the blue of .good job keep it up big man

Nice job Marty, keep up the good work

Wasnt sure of the colour at first but now you have put that belly pan and screen looks the dogs doodahs

i need to get the blue 19ltr tank on, and the blue blade hugger, then the bodywork will be finished for now, although i do have a freshly painted undertray with intergrated lights to go on, i bought it off snoogle but it needed a good going over to bring it back up to mint condition.
theres still loads to do mate.
thanks for all the positive comments guys

Mate i have a blue under tray possibly same blue as yours? its the same as my dads blades blue if your interested? its used but I'm sure when i clean it it will look ok

thanks for the offer seb, but i've got the freshly painted one thats on the bike now and also this freshly painted one with the intergrated lights............i've already got one to many

i got my new hel rear brake line fitted today, aswell as a new motobatt battery, and finally we fitted my fireblade hugger and skidmarx dark tint flip screen.
i'm loving the screen. much better at high speeds.
theres still lots to do, i should be putting the new tank on next week, and making some new brackets from the fairing lowers. its off to carls this weekend for a carb clean and tune up, hopefully it will be running smoother after that.
heres a few pics
