Well thought it was about time I posted again - read a lot post little.

Anyway over Waitangi weekend (took Monday off too) I put my painted Tyga RC211V replica fairing onto my VFR400. So now I need to get a WOF (tomorrow - completed the install this weekend when I installed the rear HRC brake reservoir kit)

Next phase (in Winter when $$ can allow the purchase) is to get a full Ethos system and a jet kit.

Colour is Black with a light blue perl in the final coat (can only been seen when up close and in sunlight - kinda cool). I still need to repaint the wheels but they will be going from white to silver to match the honda wings I have for the tank.

Here is a pic.

It passed its WOF today :) no problems at all. Then as I was leaving the North Harbour VTNZ station....no nothing bad-ish they have this large curb you need to go over (assume to test if a car is too low before you get the WOF these are on the way in and out - much like a speed bump) and the suspension compressed and the belly pan just caught on the back and took a small amount of paint off and put a few small scratches in the the glass work - never mind these things happen :angry:

But it is now road legal again :scooter::Punk:

now get the frame wrapped in carbon fibre, powder coat the swingarm matt black, and get the RCV211 style exhaust... that will look the shit! Loving the paint job!
