As promised here it is. Please feel free to take the mickey out of the enormous chicken lines but these were taken the first time it was ridden after it's revamp and I was far to busy checking out it's cool factor in any available reflective surfaces to worry about actually riding it!

Very nice. Where's the number plate though?

N_Tart · Two Stroke Sniffer Joined: 06 Oct 2004 Karma :

Underneath the pipes between the indicators! I believe it may be slightly illegal! Shifty

Never believe it, but I know the woman with that Nc30, the bloke standing by the red/black CBR and the blue/white GSXR600 behind it Laughing

I know the girl comes in our shop is her name Chloe or something like that?

Not sure on her name to be honest, but I'm sure it's her that used to go to a local bike meet down here, it looks like her from the back ( Shocked

) and the bike looks like it has www.boxhillmotorcycles.co.uk logo under the vfr sticker on the tail.... I recognise the bloke I "think" it's the dad of the bloke she hangs around with (think it's her boyfriend but not sure as they might be brother/friends or something)...

I think anyway Laughing

just recognise the bike!

That is one gorgous R1, great colour.. BUT..... why that god awful typeface for 'yamaha' what's wrong with the proper typeface? Would look much classier! IMHO! Laughing

Ahh you see my other half decided to do it like that but I didn't like it but he couldn't change it cos he'd run out of paint which

A. has to be ordered specially from the usa

and B. costs £85 for half a litre so I thought I'd put up with it!

Ahh, that's ok then if you can blame him!!! Laughing

Not being rude (assuming you are female) but that bike sure lives up to your username!

Tarty! Thumbs Up

You see, I think many of us (although loath to admit it) would like a bike that looks as shiney as that. The trouble is, we are worried that we might not ride as well/hard as we might for fear of damaging the £85 a litre paint!

Still, you've got to admire the shineyness (even if I don't like purple, the typeface that Rob mentioned or the white wheels...)

Hmm. What does that leave? SSSA! Thumbs Up

(Ps, Apologies if you are male, I took it to be a safe bet you are female being that you refer to your other half as 'he'. ) Smile

Remember kids, bikes aren't like lego. You can't easily take a part from one bike and then fit it to another.
