    I've not even had the RR5 for a year, but wanted a different look.
    It came like this

    But today I removed the fairings

    and fitted my new ones. A nice blank canvas.
    I had bought £150 worth of fairings off ebay, but they needed a bit of work, fortunately I know a good bodyshop and a £200 cash job saw them coming back like this.

    Add £25 worth of sticker kit and vinyl sheet, I'm almost there.

    Looks good but you just could have bought white boots.

    Boots to me means tyres, i assume you mean the wheels?
    More expense i could do without. I bought new wheel rim stickers though, looks much better than the old rim tape.

    Done a bit more on the front today.
    Ignore the headlight covers, I'm stickering them up for track days.

    Looks really nice mate.

    You know a nice set of Red Samco hoses would really suit the look ;)

    It just so happens I have a set in the classifieds :) ;)

    Still working on the fairing at the mo. so any other mods will have to wait.
    Got the tail section back on and done a bit more to the front. Still not sure about some of the ones on the front cowl though. I may change some of them.

    It's pretty much finished now. Got the rest of the sticker kit on. Adjusted a few bits, fitted the Stomp Grips from the old tank.
    I'm just waiting on delivery of the Venture Shield so I can cover the front of the lower side fairings from stone chips and the carbon tank pad.
