Nice..You need to get some R6 calipers and cut about 5 inchs of that can and it would look sweet

Welp I'm retarted, just went over to the archives and saw where I had talked to you over there, and that is how I remember your plate. I even commented about you being in stl and me in cape. Oh well. Good thinking about looking legal.

Chris.

Great looking color on the bike! Is that an R6 tail? Can't wait to see pics of that new tail-light installed!

and it fits pretty good,id love to do the R1 on the back,but ill have to read threw and look at the pics to see how much more cutting is involved

but for now ill just stick with how it looks
