For though who don't get down to Soho or Selkent, here's what I've been up to.

From this :-

To this :-

Even matched the tank cover with a bit a decalling,

To summerise, carbon front mudguard, carbon rear hugger, gold axes covers,
italian import fairing in polished alu, Led rear bulbs,underseat triple exhaust,
bagster seatcover,Triumph grab rail, custom sprayed tank/pod/tank front & wheels.
Custom decals/ home made gold air scoop grills, conversion to later spec rad,
gold instrument surround , gold flat bars,gilles rearsets (gold naturally),
red alloy luggage pegs,irridium plugs , five dome rear reflectors,Blue "demon eyes",
quick release pins for seat.

that's about it for now, will be replacing the instruments and fitting a gold top yoke (when I can get it drilled).

Cheers Mark.

No is the short answer, although I'm toying with the idea of satin black for it

I was going to coachline it originally, but I've done that before so though of a variation, the barb wire was a bit too busy for that so simplified it , Think I got the balance about right though.

Cheer Mark.
