Its either been left outside permanently, or its probably been repainted-badly.
I very much doubt its come out of the factory like that.

On closer inspection it has been repainted as under the chips it is the other suzuki yellow. Also does anyone know why the front right corner (as you look at it stood infront of the bike) has a bit taken off? is it supposed to?

"I listed it as NOT PERFECT'
'And it was as relevant as 'NOT TEAPOT' '

But infact it probably wasn't, as we've estabished the cowl is actually quite like an old cracked teapot.

I'm getting ****ed off this guy must be about 12. He's offered me the purchase price back which I declined and he's accusing me of 'trying to pull a fast one' c0ck. I love how ebay supply you with addresses now in the event of a dispute might be worth planting it through his windscreen.
