Title: Sneak Peak! New Colors for 06
Post by: Xian_13 on April 30, 2006, 01:52:20 PM
Unlike everyone else...
I can't affford a new bike this year.
However, I can afford a new paint job!!

Here is a sneak peak at the bike. (still needs clear coat)
You will have to make to BHFs to see how the whole bike looks!

Nice look.  Where did you come up with the idea?  Seems familiar, but I can't place it.

Now, since you're keeping your bike, did you do anything to make it work better for you?

I'm sure, I am not the first one to do a plate like that. Seems to me, I have seen it before also.
The rear plates remind me of something I saw on a Moto GP bike, but still I don't recall.

With out getting to deep into things...
The loose nut that was Piloting the machine last year.. needed some realignment.

With no changes to the bike since last year...
I managed to run with/beat people, at RA, that I couldn't catch last year.
That even after my Highside coming out of 14, on friday.

I will be tweaking the suspension Friday at BFHs... its good now but I think it can have alittle better traction.

I gotta tell you, a clear head and white plates are good for 20 Horse Power... Atleast :)

I suppose after I get through sorting pictures from Blackhawk, you're gonna want before and after action shots. Before and after the added "character" that is.

Later,
Marc
