So it isn't my monitor then? Those tyres are orange? FFS that's a big no if ever I saw one. Quiff might disagree though! :wink:

There are bits I like other bits I don't.

I really like the look of the exhaust coming out of the rear fairing. I absolutely hate the way they get there. If they had stuck a single sided swing arm on it and routed the pipe work properly it would have looked so much better.

I like the black frame and I gold gixxer forks. Tyres can be changed in a nano second so no problems there. Headlight is cack.

Looks ok "ish" from the the front, but side view it sticks out way too much from the forks.

New smaller compact clocks and different lights would transform it.

Overall I like it but would change some stuff if I had the money. Will anyone buy it :?: No idea. Too rich for my liking.

I think we all pretty much agree that it needs further work and is way too expensive for what it currently is.

Most of it is horrible, but I rather like those orange tyres. Where can one get them from?

Like the exhausts on it

Those are Tomahawk remoulds- they come complete with a healthy dose of derision ;)

Coloured tyres
 
Did anyone watch that episode of TopGear with the TVR and the coloured tyres?
They let off smoke the colour of the tyre when you do a burn out - Red arrows stylie! :lol:
Is it possible that they are a similar sort of thing? :wink:
