Slowly but surely she's starting to take shape, small little things first and then it will look the bomb i want it to look like =]

Ah Ha, so if this has worked (which i damn well hope it has) you should see a few pictures of when i first got her and a few mods after, she's still an on going project and there was a small issue of an 'Off' to deal with as well which was in between the first few pics and the last few.

When i first got her i gave her a quick wash and tidy up:

Blue flame exhausts were replaced after the off, new handle grips, leavers will be replaced soon, l/h side fairing replaced, braided hoses, k&n filter, dyno jet, lovely to ride... Looking for a seat cowl, LED tail light a a few little extras to make her look a tad special.

@Flatline. Which indicators do you mean? Front or back?
She's still a little work in progress I'm afraid, minor things at the mo...

Well after the off the only thing i needed to make it legal was the front left indicator, yup replaced the front two. Need to sand down the gear pedal as that had to be replaced and has some writing on it ^_^ all in all not bad for a first 'big' bike for some lass who's only had her license a few weeks when getting the bike :biggrin

Looking good, done the same myself, DAS then run about on a 600 for a month then bought the storm. Just round the corner from me so once mine is back on road( an off in Wales during a storm meeting) might see u round :thumbup:
