NICE !!!!!!!!!!!
and if you paint that seat cowl and tell the folks about it.
Then and only then would it be just AWESOME !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :icon_exclaim: :icon_exclaim: :icon_exclaim: :icon_exclaim: :thumb:
Oh and HAPPY BIRTHDAY too. :cheers:
hahah thx... I'll edit it, forgot to add the seat cowl...
I still need to paint it, but it does blend in ok with the colors
OK
Now it's AWESOME :icon_exclaim:
:cheers:
Nice bike.
Eh, on the grips on the tank though. Don't really do it for me looks like it has a bad rash! Those look like stock mirrors to me. Can I get a close up of the GSXR carbon fiber ones?
Mary
+1 on the tank pad thing, do they make a pill to clear that up?
other wise looks pretty good, maybe think about adding a rear hugger?? :thumb:
also does anyone know if there is a reflector in white that could replace the front orange ones on the fork, cause that would look good too!
here the close up on the mirrors... don't remember what year it was from, they are not real carbon fiber... just look a like carbon fiber!
(http://lh6.ggpht.com/_p98d9POw4as/ShN6CgPkjrI/AAAAAAAACWM/2Yl-xoHzVGs/IMGP4450%20-%20Copy.JPG)
about the grips, I'm gonna change them soon, I got a set of stomp grip tank protector in black, and 2 stripes of it, that I will place on each side!!!
you really need to try them to know the difference it makes!! especially after waxing it! :icon_mrgreen:
That's a sexy bike you have there. My bike came with those mirrors, they suck ass. Paint comes off, they kind of have a fish eye lens in a bad way, and they are built soooo cheaply. Don't be surprised when you go to adjust one some day and it just breaks off, that happened to me. So i bought some stock mirrors and they are 1000 times better. Just FYI
Sweet 07! For some reason that light looks a tad beefier than my 04 light. Maybe it's just me..... :icon_confused:
Real clean bike, Nice! :cheers:
BTW, What kind of rimstripes did you put on there? Did you use the tapeworks kit? Some reflective ones have been on my list but tapeworks are just so darn expensive.
I like the colour :woohoo: very nice and clean....

I totally agreed, they do suck... but still does the job!!.. I like how they are shorter

sorry, it wasen't a kit at all, I used to have a plotter to cut vinyl... so I cut it in shaped of curved line and stuck it on!
dunno what I'm gonna do when I'll swap to a katana wheel! :dunno_white:
I heard good things about tapeworks
http://www.tapeworks.com/Rimstripes/RimstripesHome.html (http://www.tapeworks.com/Rimstripes/RimstripesHome.html)
LKN and MS13 is starting to show up here in NC, due to the large hispanic influx. I also grew up on the south side of Chicago and thought I got away from that crap.
