Ooooh, yes! Looking good Kelevvra. Keeps a comfy seat, doesn't have stupid nut-crushing, aircraft-signalling, near vertical rear (which I don't understand either). Front looks low and purposeful, nothing over done. Sweet!  :thumbup

Kelevvra the seat area is great best ive seen
buuuurt if I may be so bold ---im not sure on the checkerplate undertray, aaaaaand I think our swing arms are cheep and crappy looking and to go to great efforts in polishing them just makes them stand out more when they are ugly and should go away, I wonder if anyone has done them black.
I don't do rain or threat there of. dry rider only with no shame.

The fazer swingarm is actually quite rugged and decent looking in comparison to other budget 600's of the era (and recent too I suppose) in my opinion!
Polishing stuff isn't for me though- not that it don't look good- it does, but shows only a fair weather bike!  :'(
Some say...

Thanks for feedback guys.:)
@fazersharp  I wanted to try with polished swingarm first, black (or red)  were options for the future but since I crashed it recently and won't be riding for a year+ due to injuries I'm considering RSV Mille front and rear. Tail piece was made by a friend ( 3 afternoons + bit of modelling clay, plaster and glass fibre:).

Sorry to hear about injuries, especially when they stop you riding. But you might be surprised at recovery time? (I hope)  :)

Nice one! Love the r1 rear light. Good effort =)
 
Hope you heal up quick!

It wouldn't be fun if it was easy, I just wish it wasn't this much fun.

Very nice - one of those bikes that the more you look, the more you see - at first it's just the colour; wait a minute, that's not the Yamaha gold, nice matching belly pan. Then the forks - what're those from? And then you spot WP - so a quality rear shock too. Nice polished rims and cam end caps, comfy, smart looking seat etc - anything else I can't see?

Finally, here's a couple of mine, just after it's pre- winter bath!



Still lots to do, but really happy with it so far.

Is the front Fender from an FZS1000?

Put bike on centre stand on a flat surface, start engine and let run for about a minute, switch engine off then check the little window.
There are lower and upper level markings to the side of the window, you'll see the oil rise then eventually stop, you want the oil to be between the 2 levels.
DON'T OVER FILL WITH OIL.
