This modified one appeals to me. Must be my age with the paint job. The stock ride looks a bit odd in my books - great bike but got struck off my purchase list when looking.

Mind you - imagine the budget! One thing that bugs me with all of RSD bikes is his brake upgrades - should have phoned Yamaha for a nice set of Brembos to bold straight on .....

It is nice, would look better if the side numbers where raised as they ruin the line of the bike

Kinda looks like someone stapled some ice cream container lids on there eh, and not even from the good stuff that comes in the square tub, but it's cheaper and always icey cousin in the rectangle tub.

Ha - if you watch the video there is a fair bit of eyeing up the number boards for position!

Looks heaps better than a stock one.

Do you think the Police would question a race number board if pulled over ......

What does look good with number boards?
Bikexif and pipeburn show plenty of reasons not to use them. ice cream lids indeed. Usually a cheap way to cover a battery or similar in a 'cafe racer' :yawn:

As for the coppers caring- licence, wof, reg and they are pretty happy as long as you werent doing a mono/burnout/ 160km+ when you were seen.
