Very nice
Blimey, if DY thinks its looks nice then that's very high praise. Gotta say I have never seen black fork tubes on a FZS before, very distinct.

@Devils, how hard and costly is it to convert the clutch and generator covers to windowed...?

Hard and costly if you want it right
Biggest issue is time allow 3 months

I like this because it challenges the norm
There are lots of little subtle mods
That people will copy and add there own twist
The mod list for gen 1s is long therefore finding different
is refreshing

I recognise those gold wheels, here they are in their new home. Liking the blacked out effect, next mod on the never ending list  :D

Gold nice, Red nicer  ;)
Wavy disc emmmmmmmmmmm ........ maybe next year.

Not the best photo but gives a closer look at the paint finish and the ghosted tuning fork's, looks better in the flesh.
