Love the orange frame, as I'm a huge fan of the factory bikes and Cairoli rep bikes. Not too sure about the painted motor, but will reserve judgement until it's fully assembled.

I think it looks a bit gay....are you going to ride this bike or send it up to Motat for a static display?

if you didn't tell us what you were doing to it I wouldn't have notice, as i really don.t look too deep in to any bike.
But does look nice, just one thing would painting the engine make it over heat?

Not unless he painted it in the super duper heat reflective paint they use on the space shuttle...

Looks cool, needs a full white plastics kit though :yes:

Where you getting it from? Would like some white plastics for mine as well, but it's about $200 for everything from the States and only really need the front fender, shrouds and side panels.

clear tanks are the bizz man,

Clear tanks are especially the biz, when you make a quick mental calculation of how much gas should be left and do another loop... and then spend an hour pushing your petrol-free bike back to the car park... as was my experience on Saturday...

http://www.454.co.nz/ have the kit on order, not sure on the delivery date. Between 225-260 for the whole kit, or 260 for the shrouds and fender from bits for bikes now.
