Hellride: It wasn't for the SP1 it was for the Firestorm, I had a look on the bay and can't find them. Have to keep looking, or change the tail plastics to match a tray you can find lol

03-05 R6 tail unit

One day I may be happy with the wombles thing during riding season?!?!

you have been a busy boy, the bikes looking good mate, are you going to change the colour?

The seat unit or the whole bike? lol

The rear is still in the primer it came in from you mate. I didn't see the point in spraying it to match before I had everything mocked up and sorted before final assembly.

However...I have been talking to Dave about a spray job for the bike as this one was a complete rush and is really not the best...just gotta decide on colours/theme

Anybody have any ideas??

airbrushed wavy union jack, like some of the triumphd had a few years back....

Hmmm not into the flag thing personally, each to their own though.

Was thinking either a solid metallic grey or something similar to the HRC colours on the CB1000R (white, red and blue).

Hoping to get it done in the winter (yes, actually winter this time rather than the begining of the riding season like I have the past 2 years )

Stick it in Photoshop, select your panels and have a play around with colours, see how it look's. I like the sound of Dark Metalic gray. Should go with the wheels, nice contrast I had an idea of doing all mine in Red at one stage with a Snap On Tools theme.

Got through this a lot quicker with the new avatar

Have Fun

(:-})

i also like the honda legends/rc30 paint scheme..........you might not have enough bodywork for it tho

good work fella keep it up!!
