Err, don't want to be the bearer of bad news, but the K4 650s didn't come in silver. The only pointy one that did was the K3.
What do you have on your fuel tank? An S or Suzuki?

Just making sure you knew. There are a few people who were sold K3s and told they were K4s bythe dealer.
I would have probably bought a silver one if the black ones hadn't come out, but that's a manly thing.

Thanks for the info..............is there any real difference between the K3 & K4 or was it just colour availability. Just wanna know before I go ordering loads of bits that won't fit (thinking of the v.expensive race screen I have just ordered )

And my real reason for buying silver..............cos it had lowers and I hate cleaning so silver shows the dirt a whole lot less. Same reason I opted against a K5 cos the thought of having to clean the black frame made me squirm with horror!!

There are a few differences, main ones are exhausts and huggers aren't the same. Most of the rest of the stuff is interchangeable.

Fraid you are gonna have to..............or with a little bribery and persuasion get the other half to do it (not that I would condone that kind of behaviour nor would I personally stoop so low )

To ptip I got last night..............use strips of the clear tank protector from Oxford on the fork legs to prevent them getting shot blasted!!
