Looks a 100 times better. Not like a child's toy anymore.

Looks good, but, IMO, that screen really spoils it!

I prefer the plain black look, but wonder how much it cost to do and if it was worth it. Might have been easier to buy something like that in the first place.

I think it's good the way it is now, I think gold wheels would take away from that understated look.

Out of interest, how does the fireblade compare to the rsv to ride ?
