    lol, cheerz hump ... I like it black ... bought it in red because it was the only RR4 available at the time, sprayed it black myself and was quite happy with the outcome ... then I came in to a bit of money and just went mental, bought some new plastics ... the bike got a fair amount of attention everywhere I went, the ex got jealous and decided to f**k up the plastics (hence "ex") so I replaced the plastics again with the final black gloss finish ... added some nice foot pegs, grips and bar ends ... she should be staying as she is now ... might change the hugger in the future lol ... and when I can afford to, change the laser exhaust for a nice akrapovic system (but that wont be for a LONG time yet lol)
