Very nice.

At the NEC a few years ago, there was a SV painted in the same colour scheme as Kagayama's helmet- with the stripes down the middle. I loved it. Your scheme is brilliant too.

Lookin good
At the risk of offending though, in my opinion the viper stripes would've looked better in silver.
It's not my bike though is it!!

The K9 model has silver stripes, and as much as I think they are really nice looking, if I had just had my bike painted I'd want something a touch more individual. I quite like the white ones Stretch has gone for.

My only citicism is the stripes on the mudguard, grabrail and bellypan are a touch of overkill - sometimes less is more.

Your quest of transforming your bike into a similar but not the same as Stealth SV??


I'm still not entirely sure how you know what my bike looks like. I deleted all photos off photobucket for this forum when I took a break, before you joined. Do I know you??? Confused!!!






Here's a few photos of my bike that I re-uploaded. Jumping on the bandwagon as everyone else seems to be doing it on this thread.












The TRS system isn't road legal so you'll either need to find a sympathetic MOT tester or put a legal system back on like I did.


And to answer your question to me, my seat was actually the original seat but it was scooped out loads and recovered.


I look forward to seeing the new and improved 'Similar Stealth Bike MkII'
Did you paint the footrests and forks black or is that how they came ? - are the fork clamps and top plate black too ?
