I like the yellow wheels! I always think these look a bit wierd with the fairings off cos of the sideways rads.

Yep that is my pet hate when people do what they call a streetfighter, I call them crash damaged, and then leave the rads on the side. Yellow wheels are pain to keep clean, Just as bad as White.

Idle curiosity. Why have you got your Abba stand mounted on the engine mount instead of the swingarm pivot?

Raises it higher plus you can remove the swingare like this...Note the bits of wood it sits on to gain the extra height...

I usually have a couple of bricks under those bits of timber too when I want to remove the complete rear end. I only had it like this on the timber as I had just put everything back together and wanted to keep the bike upright while still on the Abba mounted of the engine mount. I need some bigger bits of timber ideally to save using bricks. As you can see without the bricks the back wheel still touches the ground.
