Man. Optical enjoyment is right. Someday my 1k will look that good.

Thanks fellas! Yeah, I've kept my eyes open looking for a nice 1000 for a while now. I stopped looking for quite some time when this one showed up. I have all of the documentation of this bike since day one. Amazing. I'm gonna rebuild the forks, toss in some new pads and put on a pair of Pilot 3s. Other than that I think it'll live up to the old '89 FZR 1000 of yore.

@ Brown Stain - she's a stunner bud! Mine I bought 5 days ago, put a Metzler on the back and some new brake pads, rode her down to my beach house (about 170km from where I live), cleaned her today and dead happy. As a newbie here, I haven't yet learnt how to upload a pic, but will surely get there soon!

Thanks Mike! Get yourself an account at Photobucket. You can upload your photos there then copy and paste the image link here.

For some reason, this "post reply" doesn't give me the option to upload - in a previous topic, I managed to post a pic. I'll keep trying!

Lets see how this one works!

Hey, finally got that one right - had this baby now for 6 days (today raining so hate to count it in) and enjoying her very much! One or two small scratches on her fairing, but will soon sort that out. I've ordered a smoked visor which I'll fit soon too!

Hi B-S,
you might want to photoshop out your numberplate details.with the internet it would be easy enough to track the registration and you wake up to find the bike GONE..

I agree with my husband Blue & White bikes always look clean

Very nice Mike! She's a beauty. I noticed Yamaha changed the front brake calipers and mounts. Never knew that.

I hear ya Camala. Although I'd pity the fool trying to steal it. It would make great entertainment though.

"great entertainment...." - I like your track of thought!

I've ordered a smoked "screen/visor" which I think might look better with the black upper portion of the fairing.

I was thinking the same thing about a smoked screen on mine. That would look really nice on yours.
