Says Mr Black CBRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR.

It reminds me of the Batmobile Daz!! :P

I think its nice anyway.

Edit to post: Providing its rimtape is fitted properly.

CazB's ZX6R had yellow tape fitted and it looked like whoever fitted it must have been pi5hed!! It was the first thing to come off when she bought it. :nono

That is a nice looking bike!

I can't help but think it looks different from the front cause of the bubble starting so far forward or if it's the mirror themselves but they don't look......right? Nice, but not original if you know what i mean. I promise i won't get drunk and "Park" this one.

I really hope so.

Rowan, get your eyes tested and drink red-bull to sharpen up the reflexes. Word has it; those cat-like reflexes of yours have morphed into reflexes resembling those of a Slug (pants).

It'll be great to have you back on wheels dude :freebird

7 hour ride home, 400 miles, most of them in the dark , could use a clean :roll

but OMFG!!! looks like it's been chasing parked cars, but compared to a 600, it pulls like a train, sat in 5th the whole way, damn thing's like an automatic. It hates going slow!! it seems to naturally sit happily at 120-130, takes a lot of effort to keep it legal speeds :roll seroiusly comfy though :biggrin2
