It was silver and black, now black and carbon.


Vance & Hines Urban Brawler exhausts
Evotech hangers
Carbon front mudguard
Carbon injector cover
Carbon front tank piece
Carbon tail
Tail tidy
3M carbon wrap on fuel cap
Sprayed clock surround black
GiPro gear indicator
CRG Hindsight LS mirror
Rhinomoto bar ends
Shorty black levers
RAM mount for TomTom
Black Oxford tank pad
Kawasaki black seat cowl
Kawasaki black side fairing
HID kit
Bikemonkey smoked tail light
R&G fork, spindle & engine protectors
R&G shock tube
Probolt bolts nearly all over
Datatool alarm (very annoying)

Maybe some bits I have missed out. Also have an R&G rad guard to fit and I'm considering having the wheels done gloss black. Anyway, here's some pics...

Now we're talking!

This is about the only modern machine for some reason I actually like.

I have an old friend a distance away who has one, can't wait to have a look although I doubt he'll let me have a pop on it, does say though they ride a tad on the hard side?

Ok a few pics as it was when I bought it.

1 lady owner, sold with the Akra cans (stock ones supplied new and unused). I sold these for about £650 Smile

I have a normal reg now, transfered the plate back to her.

Only thing I dont like about it is the colour of the speedo. Other than that I'm sitting here dribbling and drooling like a paralympic. Laughing

I like those bikes very much, and that particular one very much indeed Wub

The only two drawbacks with that model for me are the tinted cover over the clocks and the way any aftermarket exhaust looks odd with the bellypan bit that mates with the original exhaust - those V&Hs looks about the best I've seen for it so far - but just how loud are they?

From looking at them I'd guess that they're damned loud! Twisted Evil

They aren't THAT loud. A couple of bikes ago I had a ZX10 with a Racefit Growler and that for example was a LOT louder, like Concorder coming down the road. The V&H are nothing that extreme.

I too don't like the orange clock face but nothing I can do about it. However, at night the display is properly red, not orange at all.

Clocks do look like something from an 80s scooter, or possibly an 80s alarm clock Thinking but that really wouldnt bother me that much tbh! Especially as the rest of the bike is sexual Cool

MV may sell a bike called the Brutale, but that bike right there is the true embodiment of the word.

Looks like it's sporting for a scrap, and would win it hands down.
