I have seriously been considering painting my project a similar shade of blue {grabber blue}
You may have just sold me on that color mate......

I find this also quite inspiring (since I do have a insurance salvage ER6 in garage).

artsy pix of a french 750

I like the bike. like the exhaust too. makes the bike look almost stock but a little cafe style to like the factory wanted it that way.

Is it just me that thinks the sidepanel is too big - out of proportion ?

I was thinking the same. IMHO black panel could look better.

you dare question big red?! blasphemy!! infidel!!

i think it looks fine.

nobody · « **Reply #3160 on:** October 12, 2009, 12:15:27 pm »

A black side panel might look a little better than the blue. That being said, if that were my bike I'd cuddle with it every night and whisper sweet nothings to it.

Okay Mgab, we'll leave you alone with it. Just let us know when you're 'finished' okay ?

saw this in the last copy of Caferacer magazine. Which buy the way has some good pictures but is a pretty crappy magazine. It is written like many post on this forum. Where in our haste we mis a key stroke and dont type the whole word or hit the wrong one. Understandable, i dont use spell check on my post but if i was selling it to you for $6 a rag then i might hit the spell check or even have somebody proof read my work. There are errors on almost every page. Not to mention the first ad is a full page of OLD BIKE BARN, who we know is a rip off, and they talk him up in the magazine too. They dont tell you how crappy his service is though. Anyway like i said, they do have some cool bikes.

cool bike-
it has a tail.
could have done with a more exotic tread pattern though.
