Went up to Notts again last week to see my dad and for a change from the normal Matlock and Cat n Diddle we decided to go to Hunstanton.It was a great ride there from Notts nice A roads all the way there, got diverted because of a fire half way there so lucky i had the map handy on my tank bag. Got there for lunch and it was already packed, we we're lucky that we grabbed such a decent sized spot.

Anyway the old SV's got more attention than the flock of GSXR's and much more expensive bikes there which was great. Lots of people talking about the bikes, plenty asking my dad about his new graphics which i must say have added to the bike nicely, he's still got a few things to add, something will be happening to those headlight covers. Alot of people liked my headlight covers which now i've had them for a while are just what in was after, it really has personalised the bike.

Well heres some pics of the day, really enjoyed it and would go again!!!

Yeh near where my dad lives is a place that does it all, its called The Image Works. My Dad gave him a bit of an idea what he wanted and then he went off and produced that. He's got a website too, www.the-image-works.co.uk (http://www.the-image-works.co.uk) .. Cost £70 to be made and fitted and took over 3 hours so was well worth it compared to a £1000 paint job!!

Glad you can see past the pointyness :D. Go for it get some done, atleast if you don't like them you haven't lost any money. Plus you could change it every once in a while to keep things interesting!!

That looks a lot better than last time I visited, it was cold and wet and most of it was shut! Chips were good though:)

Did you get fish & chips and walk down the sea front to the fun fair ?
As an adultlesent I spent most of my weekends up there in Sunny Hunny.
Lived in King's Lynn where I met my other half.
There are some very nice back roads round there arn't they ;-)

Oh yea, almost forgot, Very nice graphics liking the headlight covers.

I made them myself. Just made a template of the covers out of card and then used a few lids to create the circles. I used static film to make something i could spray on and then peel off easily, i then sprayed over the inside of the lights and the static film circles. Wasn't too bad the paint dried in minutes about 5 coats later i was left with that.

The covers were only £17 from busters i think!!!
