Tried my hand at painting my Center Carriers Gold. Came out decent for my first time, I'm sure I'll want to repaint them eventually :whistle

Planning on buying a rear brake caliper from Kid. I'll probably pick up a t595 front brake set up within the next month as well. I also have to bend my pipe because my chick wants to start riding 2up and I have to angle it down so I can put my rear pegs on.. :yuck: banghead

If your forks need a rebuild anytime soon I have a set of powder coated 90+ fork lowers you could swap to and then use the r6/r1 brakes.

You know, just throwing it out there. :whistle

love the upper. I also really like the fzr side fairings. Looks great. Someday I might own a duc. The 748 is my favorite.

Lol, he's hard at work on this bike. Very impressive :) I wonder if he gets to ride it?

Thanks man, I have the same love for the 748, hoping to pick one up in a couple years during winter so the prices arn't inflated. :thumbsup:

Cheers! She's my daily rider.. Although I do find myself getting lost in the canyons when I'm supposed to be doing errands :whistle
It was hell having her topless for a few days, besides money, that's the only thing that scares me about modding her. I hate modding when I could be riding!

I want to get them done yellow? Would it be a close match? I really can not get them done right now. My bike was vandalized and smashed about a month ago. I spent a small fortune fixing and replacing everything. My girlfriend wants to Kill me!! So I need to calm things down right now. I can't spend any more on the bike.
