    Well at least he is covering up the manky tart nowadays.

    But why is this worth 5k?
    It' had the big bucks thrown at it. . . Like tyres and chain, and other service items . .

    She is also a little bit famous, featuring in the Nick Von K Motorcycle Club campaign, as can be seen in the photos, and the World Famous in NZ KB Optimistic Sellers.

    Exactly. All of his bikes are priced thousands higher than similar elsewhere. OK, some people may think they are worth that, and they must do if he's selling them.

    One of the things I hate is people anthropomorphising motorcycles - or anything - referring to them as "she". Its a thing. It has no gender.

    It is barely acceptable for a capital ship and only by dint of long historical use, but never for anything displacing less than (say) 8000 long tons.*

    I think you need to start a thread called something like 'F5 Dave's cool customs' and post up pictures of modified bikes you like. I'm getting concerned that you are morphing into one of those people who truly believe that 100% factory is the only way.

    I too and not a fan of pipe wrap. On a race engine - fine, it's there for a reason, on a road bike it will just rot your pipes.

    Firestones (often called Fuckstones on the net) are something I just ignore now, changing tyres is easy.

    Hot leg - meh I ride a Ducati, it's nice on the right leg mid winter. Interesting here I removed the factory heat shield for the rear header because I did not like the way it covered the lovely pipe and made up my own smaller more discrete shields that exposed a lot more of the pipes. Then polished the F out of the stainless pipes, that have now turned a quite beautiful colour. Anyway, the smaller shields I've made don't increase the heat on the leg to any noticeable degree. I almost wonder if it's fractionally cooler due to improved air flow. Go figure, looks heaps better but would upset 'Mericans as the dumb fucks would probably touch the hot pipe!
