New Paint job ideas

**munter** · 3rd February 2005, 13:10

I finally got myself a bike and would like to turn it into a street fighter. It's a 1987 CBR600 and does not have the front fairings so is half way there. Does any one have any good links to websites that have customised bikes and paint jobs so I can get an idea on what I can do?
Sorry Jim2 you may not like/recognise your old baby soon.

Get one of those acerbis cyclops lights like chris got. It looks pretty cool!

what happened to the fairings?????

They dont fit - Jim2 got them from TSS - I am trying to swap them for a new rear tyre at the mo.

Long story - when I agreed to buy the bike off Jim2 he had some fairings on order @ TSS. Once I got the bike Jim2 had not put the fairings on (Jim2 and I agreed that I could do this myself) I finally got around to fitting them and discovered that they are about 1cm to short around the top. TSS would not take them back back are happy to sell on behalf or maybe swap for a new rear tyre - find out on saturday.

Ps the blade is black now, still deciding what colour to do the rest of the bike.

May need Blakamins help, where are you Blakamin ?

Hey Munter,

I'll wheel it out and get some photos in the w'end... Looks interesting... Still got a f'kn sore back, so I'm on the whale for a few more days yet

... Ah, I'll talk to you about it tomorrow.

You've been thru all the stuff on bikepics.com ? try looking at some other models or makes... There's lots of cool stuff there.

Maybe you should post a side on shot so some of us can GIMP it up for ya.
