Had the Battlestar painted by Reflections in Glenfield.
It has 80,000km up, was looking a bit tired, stone chipped and had some minor crash damage - so it had a birthday.

The 1000 word thing to do is show you some pics and just say i'm very satisfied with the results.

Thanks Dave!

Talking about your self in third person again:weird:

But the trumpet is looking good i must say... having seen it at the pub in the dark.


Like I'm Mike Tyson. Dave is the proprietor. Came up even better after it had a groom.

Was at the Sawmill cafe in Leigh this afternoon - just a car in the car park.

I got 'trade', but Dave uses 'a ZZR250 is around $1,250' as a guide.
I'm told you can get cheaper, but this is undoubtedly a top quality job by a specialist.

Thanks all.

Yep - shocks on both mine were shagged under 20,000km.
I stick Ohlins on everything anyway.
i've got some nifty ride height adjusters on the back as well.

I have it jacked right up to quicken the steering and it's now got reasonable ground clearance. (for what started life as a tourer).
Ohlins springs in the forks and race tech cartridge emulators means the front end works quite nicely too.
