A non-biker would say: Is that a new bike? 08 Model?:pinch:
A biker would say: Hmmm, someone loves that bike. :love:
Beautiful work mate. :2thumbsup
Please tell us the full story. Why that bike? How long did the search take, how long since you bought it. How many fingernails, knuckle skins, etc have you broken, scrapped?:crazy:

Wow that looks great.
Was there any reason why you didn't use the original style R's on the front fairings to match the seat and tail?
