Looks lovely!

See, now we get to the gritty truth - colour don't mean s**t, if it ain't got speed blocks it's slow!

Nice looking bike bluethou, need to get that pic in here:

Did it come with the speed blocks or did you add them ?

Worth thinking about Pete, a paintjob is the one thing that really makes a bike stand out from the crowd - more noticeable than cans, USD forks, undy-guards etc. Don't just look at Fazers for inspiration tho, as you no doubt know, loads of Yams have had the speed block treatment. As a fan of blue, why not look to use a different blue colour too?

Nah... Chrome is a bit cliché. Every sports bike rider and his left testicle have chrome. Not to mention (god forbid) - Harleys!

Your next plan for getting your bike up to 60?

I take it by that you were actually serious about chrome then?

Exupnut · « **Reply #18 on:** 12 September 2013, 09:26:19 pm »

I will still own that bike WHEN i am 60 :-)

Ooooh, you mean chrome speedblocks?

Hmmm, not sure. Some sort of gold colour, maybe even polished light brass finish, might go well with blue, especially the darker blue you've got. Hard to say without seeing it.

Surely you haven't already forgotten Brackley?
