I'm getting a RGV race single seat rear cowling on monday, so thought i would photoshop one in, my side fairings are in crap nick at the moment so i just found some pics on bikepics.com and had a play in photoshop,

Do you guys think it looks anygood...

I'm thinking something along the lines of an led tail light possible 07 zx6r...hung underneath with some oxford triangle indicators and a plate.

Instead of hacking into the fiberglass to put some lights in...might give it a more racey look?

Both stock ...and photoshopped pics below... first pic is stock bike, 2nd pic is with rgv tail photoshopped in, 3rd pic is with the numberplate hanger and indicators taken off. with an rgv tail.

Cheers: Mark

Mkay, i reckon, go led and get the RGV one, get a good paintjob on it, cut the numberplate holder down a bit, make it smoother etc and get small indicators :yes:

Awesome rugby game, Mark, you should have done one of two things....

A) watched the game coz we kicked ass!! WOO HOO

B) got laid.

At this hour ya being a nerd!!! Might have to start calling you phenwaa soon if you aint' careful!

I think rather than have indicators use an integrated tail light, if its a race rear.

Sorry Folks. Standard looks better to me. The RGV sorta looks strange/too big. But that might just be the photoshoping.

Yep, what he said...

Also, beware of making it too unique, as it might go against you should you ever want to resell...

For the sake of interest, I had a little play too. I figured the only thing ruining the RGV tail for me was the colour scheme.

Maybe these will help with your decision.

RGV tail with matching paint job I think would look excellent. It's pretty much the same as the original except for the line under the seat which lifts it up. That tail light system looks cool but I don't think the triangle shape would suit the tail, a squarer style would look better.

Although, a single seat isn't going to help you get laid...

To be honest, She looks ugly atm (I've seen it in flesh). But if you can make it look anything like Mekks photoshopped pictures it wil actually turn out quite nice!

Shipping would be hurrendous I imagine?

I've resorted to waiting for the holidays when I can ride up to Hamilton to pick up the minimotos i won on trademe since it'll be cheaper and less hassle :blink:

Oh yeah, each to there own i guess. Personally I would rather save for a nice big bike rather than putting money into a 250.

Coyote
10th September 2007, 20:53
That does look a lot better

Got me wanting to modify my bike but then I don't want to ruin the beloved VFR style

Once again. A bit rich coming for you.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Ignore that read you post wrong.

Umm, No. I actually was on the way at getting another job at the airport. Unlike you I have a CV put together and was sending it off to the airport that week, I was just reading through Kiwibiker and stumbled upon your thread which sounded like a job I would enjoy more. You only helped me get a better job sooner. Nothing else.

After the recient threads regarding 1. Gettin a job. 2. Dangerous driving charge. Both involving money. Would it not be a good idea bro to not spend the money and pay things off first. Your life dude, but why up the stress level by wasting money on stuff like this? Besides, I recon it looks better the way it allready is.
