Default Some pictures of the steed

Decided to take my bike out for a nice ride yesterday and took quite a few pics. Just recently fitted braided hoses and an MTC stubby can.


























Polished forks (Not as shiny as they were few days ago though due to going out in the rain!)

9/10 for shinyness.

You lose a point for not having done the rims too
Nice downpipe and forks!

BUT... is the outlet of that can really that big?, it looks maaahhhoooosive LOL.

Haha thanks! I'll happily take a 9/10! I did give the rims a bit of a clean but ran out of time to give them a decent polish.

The outlet is pretty big yeah. Lets just say people hear me coming before they see me lol. Makes a change from my old scorpion can, was too quiet IMO.

Cheers Matt. We ill have to have a ride out somewhere over next few weeks or something mate if you're free? I know you might be busy with a little 'en on the way but would be good before the weather totally changes for the worse.

Off for a small ride out on Saturday morning if you're up for it. Im taking a light down to boot near Buxton. It'll be a good chance to round the tyres off a bit before winter more than welcome to come along if you're free.

Aye I may well be up for riding to Buxton with ya. Depends what time you're thinking of setting off? I'm going to my cousin's wedding tomorrow all day and I'll probably be drinking a fair bit so I doubt it would be a great idea riding too early Saturday morning. Daymm, if you were going Sunday it would have been perfect!

Thanks

I'm thinking about fitting a rear hugger. Red to match the bodywork or gloss black to add a bit of contrast? What you guys reckon?
