I have to say (and no offence to the later pointy owners) but the silver wheels/frame combo is waaaaaay better looking! Black is only good if the whole bike is black IMO

Ahh ya see Skip I opted for Black as I had brought me black helmet before my bike, my jacket etc. Bike had to be colour coordinated and as they mainly black with silver in I opted for the Black pointy, and the Silver pointy one I had my eye on was in Kent, Black was closer.......

............ womans logic (I thinK, maybe Shells logic )

if you wear leather trousers shelly keep lots of wax on the parts of the tank that your inner leg rubs on( i'm not being a perv honest ) the black tanks seem to mark easy in that area, ive seen this on 3 black suzukis. some people use that clear plastic film to protect the paint on the tank.

I have bought textile trousers, will be getting some leathers once I have got some cash.

Starting out aint half expensive, although my jacket wasn't cheap for textile ... but Alpinestar is nice
