I couldnt wait so I put insurance on her and went for a little solo ride last weekend, it was COLD ! But well worth it.

This shows the custom colour a little better but its still a work in progress. Still needs rim tape on other side :-) Still needs Darth Bling led mirror lighting completed. Still needs left side dog-ear replaced.

And when i get some time I think I am gonna try and cover the frame in carbon look di-noc ... who knows, might work out !

Interesting colour. And congrats on the first ride.

I've been busier than a dog in a hubcap factory lately and have done exactly zip, zilch nada to the bike.

Must rectify soon. Much to do before she's truly ready for 2011.

It's been quite cold in Vancouver lately, +2 in the morning for several few days!!
I put my electric liner away already, thought I wouldn't need it anymore, the winter was over. Yeah not so fast :laughing6-hehe:

Beautiful colour!! Post up more pics! :fing02:

Thanks all, I will post more pics when she is cleaned and finished up.

I think I am committed to staying with no stickers, too much purty paint to show off. I would like to get the frame powdercoated though, just not liking the idea of stripping the whole thing down ... not so sure I am really teh right guy to do that either so we will see.

Got a paint code for that color? My 4th gen is going to need paint next year. I don't think I would regret it.

Sorry I dont think there is a code for that one but I will ask my painter what he used. Its a black base with a TON of red fleck metallic.

Thanks for the kind words all.

Actually round one of led brakes didnt work out, when running 2 up with the wife the suspension travel was enough to have the tire rip the mount off the bottom of the license plate so I am trying something different this summer, as yet not installed.
