    don't know what to think of that mate, maybe a bit too flashy... might look better on the engine, or the cover might have been better off in the same colour as the engine covers..... hhhhmmmm not sure. Luckily it's not my bike :D :D

    Im going to flash this time Skippy, didnt you notice :) The reason I went blue was as you can see it through the fairings and with the blue of the legend's scheme around that fairing hole the rocker matches the bikes colour which I think will look rather nice. Plus its the same colour as the hoses, I gave him one to match it too but it has come out slightly darker but its not that far off. My alloy PAIR blanks will break the colour up.

    Just going to wash it out to remove all the blast media then refit so will take some photos in a mo

    hehe thats the million dollar question Skippy isnt it.. I think I will be very very luck if it starts right away, too many varibles with the wiring and US ECU etc etc. plus could have a duff part who knows! When im paid I will buy all the gaskets / orings and oil to fire it up, going to put some cheap oil in for bench running as its bound to have picked up some dirt in the motor when its been appart. Will warm it through then change the filter and put some Castrol racing in her. So another couple of weeks and I hope to have it running!!

    Thanks Exfire :)
