That looks fantastic Phil =D> =D> =D>

Are you intending to match the rear disc with the front ones or return it to the factory finish with standard discs on the front?

Do you have a chainguard to finish it off?

The finish on the paintwork looks top class, who did it?

Cheers,
Bernie :D

-4 this morning and this was what I faced on my way to the train station this morning.

Check out the nutter on the push bike coming toward me. He must be a few slates short of a roof to be out there in these conditions!

Hi there!! Cracking looking bike! Did you do it in original paint colours? Or did you just match it with as close as possible?
I'm about to spray my fairings and I'm still in two minds about getting paint from RS paint or the colours I've matched up at work, ones a BMW grey and an Audi red!!!
Cheers Martin.

Thanks for all the great comments guys..Would you believe all panels except front mud guard are factory fresh.!! Taken off a bike I raced back in the day and in the attic ever since. Dream Machine painted the tank..l will put the chain guard on but might stick with the front disks..Couldn"t get it to handle with the knobblys so it wears Bridgestone now.. :lol:
