    After uming & aring over wether to change the blade, I finally decided to keep it. I bought a pillion cowl off of fleabay and took the rear footpegs off for a more racey look. What do you think ?

    I like it. Had to believe it's only worth a few grand?

    Very nice. Its a keeper I think. What are you going to get for reasonable money that gives you more fun?
    I keep having this debate about my Firestorm. Still can't find anything THAT much better for what I do.

    If I can find one that comes with 2 sets of wheels ( road tyres and knobblies) I'll have all the bases covered.

    lets be honest who in their right mind would want to ride pillion on a modern sportsbike ?
    better off without the pegs IMO

    Needs more rim tape though :laugh:

    I did this after splitting up with the ex and deciding Never to take a GF or allow one to com eout on my bike again... Man time only (not in a gay way although leather is involved)

    But... I then had to turn it back for one day for @dayo and Lyndseys wedding... it was swiftly removed the day after. :)

    In my upcoming mods the unwanted mounts will be permanently removed.

    The rim tape is a very emotive subject isn't it ? Especially when it's advertising something it's not ! I did contemplate removing it but no I like it. Each to there own

    lol i confess when i bought my CBR6 it had rim tape applied by the previous owner - and badly, it was so pissed it looked like the wheels were buckled.
    i did consider removing it until when i tried it came of in tiny bits - so i left it too.
