I was of the same opinion when this model hit the streets a couple of years back...but now I have one I think it's a thing of beauty:inlove

Did toy with the idea of carbon covers but then again you can have too much carbon...don't you think:lol:lol

First thing i did was cover the fudge coloured frame, i really did not like it at all, almost to the point of obsession:pirate i prefer mine the way it is now:biggrin
 
What...no gold

Badger, where can I find pics of your machine.....I may yet be persuaded to ditch the gold:biggrin

Very very nice. I've saved a couple of the pics and comparing with mine side by side.......indecision, indecision.

How do the carbon panels fit onto the frame/swingarm and are they a 'snug' fit, I couldn't be doing with any annoying rattles...not that you'd hear much with it running:megaphone.

Also where did you get the bits from? I've seen frame covers but nothing for the swingarm!:cheers
