Cool.... Looking good, Dan
What is the final 10% ?

Only one thing I dis-like is the monster decal. It doesn't go with the black / white theme. but that is just me :0)

Love it! Exactly the colour scheme I'm toying with, although I'm contemplating taking off the fairing and making it a bit cafe racer.
In the mean time I've got some of those stripes waiting to be fitted tommorow

White looks V cool, stripe is good. Not so keen on some of the other graphics TBH, sorry. And you need to do something with the holes where the grab rail once was. But overall great job.

I know you said the thing was to be painted, and looks good. But the belly pan is has to be sorted before you take it on the road and Preston it. (Good excuse to do a propoer paint job then)

Whats with the tie wraps on the fork lowers?

Well being a mate of his you must have caught his crashing bug. So next time you paint it you can do the job properly. I recommend a mix of blue on one side, yellow on t'other, and a big pair of gay boy pink bars.
