Cool.... Looking good, Dan
What is the final 10% ?

Only one thing I dis-like is the monster decal. It doesn't go with the black / white theme. but that is just me :0)

[paiste]

Love it! :cool: Exactly the colour scheme I'm toying with, although I'm contemplating taking off the fairing and making it a bit cafe racer.
In the mean time I've got some of those stripes waiting to be fitted tommorow :D

[BigBaddad]

White looks V cool, stripe is good. Not so keen on some of the other graphics TBH, sorry. And you need to do something with the holes where the grab rail once was. But overall great job.

[timwilky]

I know you said the thing was to be painted, and looks good. But the belly pan is has to be sorted before you take it on the road and Preston it. (Good excuse to do a propoer paint job then)

Whats with the tie wraps on the fork lowers?

[Geodude]

Looks good fella :)

Need to do the wheels, will be powdercoated black, also want to change the mirrors as they are scuffed

you need to do something with the holes where the grab rail once was

Wondering what to do about that. I know the thou has an infill wondering if I could get something like that, failing that will think of something!

What you mean??

Need to get a clip for the speedo cable so it will clip back onto the mudguard, cant find my original one anywhere!

Cheers for the feedback folks much appreciated.

[timwilky]

Well being a mate of his you must have caught his crashing bug. So next time you paint it you can do the job properly. I recommend a mix of blue on one side, yellow on t'other, and a big pair of gay boy pink bars.

[Irksy]

I was doing it to my tastes Wilky.. not yours!!! And no dont intend to throw this one down the road!!

[muddi]

[Paul the 6th]

stripes look friggin cool dan :D

guessing the monster logo is a throwback to the green eyed monsters in leamington spoons? :D

[kiggles]

it looks amazing mate good job. how did you put the black line down your white? is it a decal. looking at adding something to my white SV but not sure what atm. I reconmend getting an undertray. i feel it enhancing the look of the SV all when matched to the colour of the bike. duno if any one agree's but here some shots of my white SV

if you used decals how much they cost??????????

Seem pretty good, however they are an absolute biatch to fit if you are ham fisted like me!
I am probably going to get another set but this time get them fitted professionally :rolleyes:

I recently sold a curvy seat cowl to mister c (http://forums.sv650.org/member.php?u=5663) that was designed to be fitted without the grab rail. The thou seat is different altogether.

[Quiff Wichard]

I sooo want a white bike !

[Stig]

I like it. Wheels need doing though.

[Irksy]

Yep used decals for the stripe, had them custom made!
they would of cost an absolute fortune if not for Paul the Sixth's crush on me!! :smt057

Have a word with paul he can do anything decal wise!

[Irksy]

Okay so how does one of those work? :wink:

[Irksy]

singing arm oops!!! lol

sorry paul ok its a bromance just didnt wana upset girth!!

[haggis]

OFFICIAL: White is the new black. Very nice.

Just a couple of things.....

If you don't take pillions then invest in a nice can hanger. Tidies up the back end loads when you've got the cowl on anyway.

Paint the mirrors white to tie into the paintscheme.


Thats about it tho.

[yorkie_chris]

Is there such a thing as a completed project?

[Stig]

Is there such a thing as a completed project?

Nope.

[Roberrrrt]

kiggles that looks spot on! maybe slam some smaller indicators on and do the mirrors, wheels n swingarm like others have suggested and that will look the business!

[davepreston]

yes a big thumbs up on that job, would have been nice if you'd actually done it instead of starting it and then getting your dad and uncle to do the real hard work :)
as for him binning it why do you think i call him duel carrageway dan :)

[Wideboy]

welcome to the club ;)

hehe now wait till cleaning time..... i curse :lol:
