Now with alternative lowers

Thanks again to Trudd who brought his lowers up from Bristol with him on a visit to the Midlands. Your thoughts please. Carbon effect for those wondering, have carbon bits and bobs already.

I think it would blend in better if you had a carbon exhaust and hugger too. They look smart :cool:, a bit out of place amongst all the yellow though

Dave no apologies needed, all comments appreciated.
I can't justify the cost to replace exhaust unless could get a straight swap for a carbon. Maybe a black hugger. Eyes peeled. Price I paid for lowers it was worth the punt. I may spray them but I think they are too good to spray.

If you carbon wrap the huger ,that will balance it out.

Agreed. And tempting - how much were the lowers?

I always thought black & yellow was a good combination. Maybe something like a tank bra would increase the amount of black in relation to the yellow and even it out a bit. Or maybe a yellow suzuki sticker on the black bits.

not sure if the black works with the yellow, sprayed my lowers satin black couple of years back as I bought them all scuffed up, but it was too big a block of dark colour against the yellow.

although do lke the carbon idea, might work nicer on a smaller area perhaps.
