Nice Rob  waytogo
very similar to my old Preciouse.
black on black frame looks good, lots of potential there,to bling it up,  Roll Eyes
a tip if you keep the bug screen, matt black plasti dip the inside off the screen works a treat ,just did mine ,saves buying a tinted screen. Cheesy
plus i didn't realise it is very easy to convert to a ss swing arm, if you come buy the parts cheap. Wink



Hi Rob yes the brain is ticking over on what to do to the bike.

levers ordered
CF short rear hugger ordered
CRG bar end mirrors ordered

Andy supplied CF beer tray (Need to repair)

Need to re paint rear sets and oil cooler

Seat cowl needs re paint (Will do this when I think what I want to do with the colour)

Thinking of a titainium stripe over the black and maybe change the plain black to a metallic. Any suggestions would be great!

SS swingarm would be an easy upgrade so maybe keep my eye out for one though not important yet

Mate after such a long absence Im voting you in for the next tour guide .........maybe south ?
Looks like you and Andy were doing a good recon .
September spring ride would be nice. Nasho ,Seacliff bridge Gong hill climbs Mac pass ,Kanga valley for lunch 
We may even temp MV and Fudge along .
Time to get the band back together .

Ok I will accept your challenge Des.

What about a day trip to Bathurst up through  Jenolan caves and Sodwalls?

The run up Macquarie pass and down to Kiama Blow hole was great. The Blow hole was even pumping! I haven't seen it working in a long time.



I'll be up for a Jenolan , Bathurst run but surely that one will be for a warmer time of year! Our last Bathurst group ride got abandoned at Lithgow due to it being bloody freezing.

Rob decisions decisions my 5 cents only to confuse you more Roll Eyes
I had the rims on my current bike sprayed black pearl, basically a fine silver metallic through the paint glistens nicely in the sun, like metallic brake dust   Roll Eyes,

Black pearl on the tank etc and  dark silver stripes, would be a good colour scheme .

With a black on black bike, i quite like the gold theme, as on this newer monster and old 900ss,
gold stripes and decals only  Kiss,
 not levers and other billet ,then it looks wrong. vomit
keep the billet black or silver. Tongue
you got the gold brembos,and rotors which will work in nicely Cool
 







 Oh and a day trip to Bathurst via Jenolan ,from the Gong that would almost be an overnighter ??
 long way for you guys? Dolph

Thanks for the input Rob. The gold would be great but I need to think about it. Im leaving the paint till last The peal paints are really nice too. How about black with gold decals & stripes with a pearl over the whole lot?? The options are unlimited.


No problem for the day trip to Bathurst I like that run so would be looking forward to it! Grin

Good work Super glad to see you back on the road.
Yep, bin a while, and she's been sitting under a cover for a few weeks, needs a service and a new front tyre before coming out again. And some dry days.
