I'm not quite sure of the 'why', but cannot see what is not to like of the result. One becomes used to everything in life and 'perfect' is a fool's dream. 'Different' is always better. You become 'accustomed' to your partner in life...... I doubt even you would call them 'perfect', so why the double standards ?
Probably best you don't let your wife see this or you may have to become 'accustomed' to sleeping in the shed at night lol! :Blackeye:
Yep, that's definitely the way it should be, just a stunning bike red tank, that's my thoughts, but it's your bike do what ever you like
Yep wheels about 1800ish, but off set the cost of selling your standard rims then the cost is not so bad.Happy with the way the bike is looking now and i have noticed how nimble and light the bike now feels after shedding lbs,owning the bike for the last 18 months i have really started to gel with it and i am enjoying pushing myself to my limits,we have shared my first knee down action,right and left slider,i have never ridden a bike before that has given me such confidence and feedback,love my 899
Ouch £1800?! Still like them all the same, just haven't got a spare £1800 Your bike looks cool, well done on the work
