Can you see what i`ve done yet?
Side panels need a fettle and the back wheel needs recoating
Yes the garden got ignored whilst the bike was being finished. All weeded and trimmed now :devious

Added some carbon over the weekend too. I`m think it might need a bit of paint though.

So do you like?

I think the front wheel needs to be white, but I love the colour scheme.

Everyone thinks the front wheel should be white. Do you know how hard it is to clean a white front wheel? :dowhat

Did you buy the swing arm or cut it? Looks brilliant

I didnt steal the swing arm :devious

I bought it and fitted it myself as I did with 90% of the work.

Swingarm requires no mods to fit. modifications required to exhaust, hyd pipes, speedo wiring.

your comment made me smile... if you have ever looked at a single sided swingarm they are a lot thicker/stronger to cope with the forces of all the load being on one side ...take time to check one out next time and you will see what i mean

i agree with you though looks great...i had an old gsxr1100 streetfighter with a single sided swinger

Does seem silly to think that but I've seen it done before and it looked great but of course it would not be ideal
