    Yeah i am Kat. using halfords very high temp metallic black…tis a dark grey, not black. but after u run the engine up to temp i think it sort of melts and cures so i expect it to get darker…grey or black, makes no odds to me. itll still be a nice contrast between the dark block and the polished stainless bolts

    Alright gays. Has been a while, I haven’t got the net at my new house so I’m using my crappy phone. Bloody hate iPhones! Anyways I have a new toy. It’s something a little bit sexy but I can’t unleash it on you right now. Stand by to get excited radar!

    Thought it was quiet…[;)]

    If it’s a toy that turns Radar on then please don’t post any pictures!

    Looking forward to an update on the project, methinks there’s some Yam bits arriving.

    Hahaha. We have a tiddly problem, so radar won’t get excited anymore!
    I had bought a 2005 R1 in lava red, unfortunately one day before I was going to go pick it up the owner wrote it off so back to the drawing board we went. Anyways I’ve found another bike and I bought it this morning. Am going to pick it up at 4pm today. Pics to follow. But it’s not an R1 I’m afraid.

    GSXR1000 K3 on a 53 plate. Moto-graffix number boards, gay rim tape stuck all over my custom painted pearl White rims. Yoshi zorst.
    Annoying alarm that arms itself just before u get off the tossing thing. Other than that it’s as standard as the day it was born. Unmolested for now, but probs not for long.

    She sure does look very clean and tidy, guessing mileage is pretty low. I should move the tax disc to the left hand side though and forward of the riders footpeg, you dont want some funny a*sed co**er finding a reason to have a go.

    What do you think of the performance and handling?

    Yeah good point TT, I didn’t realise it was there, it was taxed ready for me. The milage is 15600 ish although I’ve stuck near enough 200 miles on in two days. I’m going to stick the tax disc to the screen.
    Performance is okay I’ve not had it crank over as there’s a brand new hoop on the back so don’t want to bail it. Handling is good though. Doesn’t feel as fast as my ten though. But it’s deffinitely neater

    That reminds me… My tax disc is in my wallet because the holder broke.

    Shame about the R1, but the Gixxer looks in good nick. I would just enjoy the rest of the summer on it, we seem to be having a good one for once!
