Winter Mods almost finished
Got my freshly tinted panels back at the weekend as well as some colour matching on the bag extensions, went with a tone down of the existing expensive and nice (but a bit to bright for me!) paint job instead of a full re-spray and am pleased with the results, looks alot better i think.
Also the bits you cant see changed are an EV13 cam, thunderslide kit, new rear disc, brake line etc, platinum air ride dual charge system, loads of bits powder coated black, new tyres (venoms) and some new home made exhaust end caps (not fitted yet) for the existing supertrapp pipes. Also got the twin cam forks and brakes sitting in the garage to do at some point in february.
Still got a few things off at powdercoat (spotlight mount and front fender trim etc) should have those back in the next few days.
This is how it looked when i got it september last year.
And now.....
and dropped down.

Neil, I take it you have a heated garage?! I've accumulated a few goodies for mine, but what with the cold weather and now a winter virus (still not fully shaken off) I am fondling things indoors, rather ineffectively.
As for your bike, well done! Quite transformed from the bike you started with.

Hi Graham, i have a big **** fan heater in there yes, wanted a ceramic one but they were to bloody expensive! settled with a 4kw fan heater does the job well enough to get out there and work on it!
As said still got a few more things to do to it but its almost there, another month then it will be time to get it taxed and out on the road again.
