Evening all!
New to the Forum, so I thought i would start it off with some pics of my bike (200cc so classed as motobike not a moped! Very Happy

)
This was it when I first bought it and had only changed the screen to a short one and fitted a Leovince stainless steel pipe

Then took all the old stickers off and had my own made up in reflective red material

Then went a bit mad and had a Rossi Replica paint scheme done by Dream Machine, fitted a Scorpion Stainless steel pipe, Bitubo TT rear shocks, F1 mirrors, Rage undertray, Wheel stripes, Chromax/candy blue powdercoating, recovered seat with metalflake vinyl, Michelin Pilot SC tyres, LED illuminated clocks, Lexus real light, silvertec bulbs and clear lenses, Carbon fibre wrapped the fork stancheons, 80W blue headlamp bulbs...........................and there are still bits to do like lose the standard airbox and get the pump housing powdercoated to match

I hope you like it or at least will appreciate it.

Rossi

You cannot polish a turd mate. Very Happy

Kidding of course.

You have spent a lot of money on this bike and it looks a proper job.

Looks like you've done a very good job there, love the race rep scheme on it. I'm quite a fan of the Gilera Runner series. I just hope the others don't slate you because you own a scooter. I like it never the less. Very Happy

I've been riding bikes too long now to be bothered by "scooter" comments, I'm 35 so I have heard it all!
As far as i'm concerned 2 wheels good, 4 wheels bad!
Glad you like it.

Cheers Dave, shame you didn't make it to the Pod over the weekend.
Rain stopped play on saturday but Joe Elliot set a new PB of 12.04 seconds at 103mph on the quarter mile on a auto scooter!! Get in there.
I got some pics featured on Scootertuning.net as well.
Chuffed!

Nearly set off, but decided against it as 155 miles each way in heavy rain would not have been much fun. Sounds like I missed out, even if there wasn't much racing! Gutted
