    Weird. I must not be hangin' out in the right part of town, because I almost never saw any white bikes out last Summer.

    That first black CBR posted above is badass!

    so been way too long since i updated... been so busy with everything.. although with all this amazing weather it has given me all kinds of motivation...

    got tired of seeing her all torn down so after it was all prepped put some clothes back on her just for a little extra motivation



    all ready for some color


    also yesterday changed the oil and flushed the break fluids...


    and decided to go with white...









    and decided to do this.



    hoping to have all the decals on, and re-assembled within the next day or so.

    love the fireblade stickers.
    Do not put off living the life you dream of. Next year may never come. If we are always waiting for something to change...
    Retirement, the kids to leave home, the weather or the economy, that's not living. That's waiting!
    Waiting will only leaves us with unrealized dreams and empty wishes.

    Looks good in the pictures but I bet it looks even better in person. You should get a photo shoot done to do some justice.

    yea tell me about it.. really wanting to get some good shots of it... still waiting on some hardware to finish putting it together.... when it was laid over some of the clips and screws were missing/broke... so i have that to do and some minor adjusting of some of the panels that arent sitting flush.. just a tiny bit off.

    Dude nice job looks real good.

    I was contemplating when i painted my bike white whether to go with gloss white or flat. Part of me wishes i went with gloss because its easier to keep clean but oh well.

    Now, what do you plan to do with those rearsets? PM incoming.

    Nice and clean. I like it a LOT better than the yellow and blue. Great job!
