So, my first bike... bought it a few months ago rather cheap and am making it a bit of a project.
In Aus we are restricted for what bike we can get early on, so hence why its not a R1 or anything like that... I'd likely kill myself haha.
No plans to do anything power related, just all cosmetic.
Basically it is getting resprayed in satin military green, and I have a friend who does digital vinyl printing making up a warhark graphic for the tank (same as what was on the P40 WW2 fighter planes, see here for concept - http://home.comcast.net/~bzee1b/Chino/DSC_6955.jpg )
So, here it is the day I bought it:
Since then I have added:
Rim Tape with custom print (Virtute Alisque - Latin for: On Wings With Courage, keeps with the Honda theme (given honda logo has wings) and was also written on side of fighter planes back in the day)
Gauge cup resprayed in Matte Black
Black Twin headlight kit
Future plans:
Respray guard, tank, & rear fairing as mentioned above
Fit LED indicators (already purchased)
Purchase & fit fender eliminator
Purchase & cit clear LED tail light
Purchase & fit Gilles Tooling GP Light Clip-on Bars
Purchase & fit bar-end mirrors
Purchase & fit new aluminium muffler to existing piping
Get fabricated a black Machinegun-style shroud for muffler
