      @mad73 Yeah, I'm pretty sure it won't make a difference. I remember in my tuning book it saying something like, polish everything. Whilst it's not proven to make a difference, it won't do no harm lol.

      It's amazing to watch all the scratchs and blemish disappear with each pass.

              @CYBER-NINJA That's my main mode of transport! You dissing!

              @MIGHTMAN ah I am afraid not. Just boring new black plastics. But got a red graphics kit for it though.

              Yeah the old wheel colours were just a budget build. Needed the bike daily so it couldn't go off the road. Eventually I maned up and started cycling. Two yesrs without a motor bike is a long time though!

                        So I've been putting these little beauts together over a few months as it was pretty expensive....for what they are.

                        These are Acerbis Dual Roads.

                        I then found a company that made Carbon Fibre Skins to replace the plastic shrouds. Then Acerbis do LED's for the knuckles. The result, £160 later, are some very funky looking hand gaurds.

                        So on the left is how they look standard:

                        alt

                        How they look on the bike:

                        alt

                        How they look on:

                        alt

                        How they look together:

                        alt

                        And they also look wicked once the sun goes down.

                        The carbon fibre skins were just stunning. Actually suprised someone went to the effort of making those.

                          Love these sort of hand guards. Made up something similar to go on my DR-Z. Looked good I thought.

                                  Contrast Up'd and Vibrance Up'd to bring out the wheels on such a dull day!

                                  It's coming together. I have had this pipe for almost three years now and this is the second time it's been on the bike would you believe.

                                        The bikes looking great @Calum! Nice colour scheme looking forward to seeing it finished, what other work do you have left to do to the bike?

                                        Every problem has a solution

                                          @Biker_123 Cheers mate.

                                          Yeah still lots to do. New front disc which is 150 quid alone. Wiring sorted out. Resistors for the indicators and alarm wired in. Coolant hoses and oil hoses. Rear needs building just waiting on some parts from ghe coaters. And then brakes bleeding. Needs a new chain and links taken out.

                                          Yeah there is still plenty to do. I want to put an ASV clutch lever on but need to get one that fits.
