My only gripe with your bike is - Paint your headers with some BBQ paint to match the blackness and maybe flip your headlight brackets so they are a bit lower ( I know - opinions are like arseholes and all that!)
Painted the headers last weekend in black. And as for the headlights, i left them that high to take the eye of the ignition switch. But result today, my mate has just GIVEN me a set of forks and top and bottom yokes of a 2007 zx10r. So with a bit of fettling it will have a different front end on by the end of the summer.
Sweet, gotta love mates like that, I don't know what to do with my front forks, they are pretty pitted with some little spots of rust! The ignition switch is huge, still trying to find a decent place for that and the spaghetti they call wiring!

Just an idea, couldnt you fit the ignition switch to a custom plate where the coolant overflow bottle is as standard?
it would be out the way and the wiring could be run on the inside of the frame out of site...
as long as you relocate or fit a custom overflow bottle...

Yes I agree, photo's needed now you have the ZX10r front end
Mind you it's looking pretty good before fitting them
