Not my fault...honest

Those paddock stands are Micron front and rear, the rear is excellent and swapped out the stand cups for bobbin hooks the front was actually missing a hole for one of the stand cups so drilled it out. It had a hole to put the stand cup in but not an exit so as to secure it. I got good deals on the Microns, one was labelled with the wrong price and the other an ebay job.

The others I have are biketek ones which are alot cheaper but not as professional such as exposed METAL stand cups so they cut into the swingarm, not very clever though easily sorted.

Biketeks are the cheaper ones and not bad and the microns are better quality and seem a bit more sturdy just more expensive

that is an absolutely GORGEOUS looking curvy

*drools*

nicely done!

ps where did you get the sidelight cover? or did you make it yourself?

Heh thanks alot JakeRS, she does clean up rather well

The sidelight cover I made myself from a broken screen, its a darker plastic compared to the headlights but it turned out pretty well

Doesnt show up very well but gives it a menacing black look to the front
