    I tend to agree, Hitch. Certainly the yellow on the headlights is a gross misjudgement. The belly pan and hugger plagued with stickers is not my scene, but this must be seen as a case of 'to each his own'.

    Someone obviously loved that bike and has traded it for something newer, or, as fate hits so many of us, liquidated it for a divorce settlement. Grrrr:mad::mad::mad:

    Remove headlight Covers and perhaps the grips and think it looks good.... it's not like they have plastered it with cheap rubbish... can always remove a few stickers :D

    Yeah I suppose beauty is in the eye of the beholder but for me it’s too much.

    If you're gonna put head light covers on they have to be clear, I used to put these on on my first bikes just for the need to make make unnecessary mods. The black screen is not only useless but looks crap!

    I'm quite partial to my stickers.....or decals as I like to call them, applied correctly to the belly pan, front mudguard and hugger just gives it that race look which I like. But these on this bike just don't look uniform and appear to have been applied in the dark!

    Apart from that it looks a decent bike, all cosmetic stuff that can easily be removed!
