BRILLIANT!

I always wondered what clean calipers look like!

The black frame looks sweet as does the tail unit!

carbs are out of balance, you need some HC pistons and a 4 cams and the back light is not legal as when you get punted in the side you will be nicked as you can not see the lights unless you are directly behind, apart from that it looks cool, like the front end too.

I have a l.e.d. light fitted for the number plate,but its crap,so i'm gonna have to come up with a better solution.What was their reason for pulling your friend up?(apart from his blistering speed :wink: :lol: )

Bike looks cool, was joking, too much wine me thinks. I fitted one of those back lights and did have a bit of concerne, not really about getting pulled but getting knocked off due to not being seen properly.

Great vid Beckster.
Two things wrong!!!
1) Shame all those red bits on what should be a yellow bike &
2) I now have a room full of carbon monoxide. Not so close to those cans next time please ha ha. :lol:
I see you have the R1/R6 mod on the R R done OK!!!

Oh how I envy a garage! :(


Good job. Keep up the work. It'll be well worth it!!!
