Not really, I'm thinking about a small screen but I don't really like the look of them.

I polished the front one but the rear wheel was powder coated and I couldn't be bothered to sand it so I got Auto Colour Matrix to polish it and paint them.

I think it was about $400, polished and painted.

LeeGood looking bike there leenok, I see some similarities to the Honda Blackbird swingarm & frame. Apparently they go like a rocket! :spudbn:

[leenok]

Do you have a before picture of it?

four cyclinder 1100? what do the exhausts make is sound like?

I'll try and find a "before piccy".
The cans are not too loud, just nice!

It's basically a naked Blackbird with the engine reworked for more torque.

LeeYou have good taste then. :blip:

Very nice looking bike Lee. How much of the plastic stuff on the front of the motor is aftermarket?

[judgeshock]

Nice ride dude, something quite different:2thumbsup

[jrandom]

That bike is dead sexy.

Love the bellypan, too.

Hey Zed

was that you i approached in jervois? i was the coppa, had just done an armed pullover of a truck, came to talk to you about your bike?

You wandered across and spoke to me in Ponsonby the other day.

Also spoke with another cop at a check point in Western Springs a short while ago. He gave me a bit of a wind up about the damage and told me to go clean it. Wondered if it was someone from here.

you should check out sportsbikesnz.co.nz

they have a cool lower fairing kit for the vtr...its not that expensive, about $500

Yeah that looks quite cool:rockon:

[Zed]

I thought he said his name was Zed...the guy i talked to i was only talking about his bike, said i liked it, wasnt "being a cop" just a biker to a biker.(even though i was in a patrol car)

the damage? clean what?Not I sir! I am concerned however that there is another "Zed" around town riding an awesome bike that I don't know about! I usually don't introduce myself as Zed either, unless it's a KB event. :blink:

Nice bike. Tell me, I remember that when the Blackbird was released (don't know if it was changed on later models) they had no adjustment for the front suspension. Is this the same for the X-11? And what was Honda's reasoning?

Did they consider the front kit to be good enough? Did they believe that owners would only stuff up the front settings? (As being a sports-tourer style bike few owners would look to improve the suspension for that extra sec off their lap times.)

[froggyfrenchman]

Phew....... and other admirational noises

I don't know Honda's reasoning but no, there is no adjustment on the front suspension.
