Chrome pipe will be going ;) this engine is just so i can roll it around. The new engine im building at the moment is all black and the new pipe and endcan will be errr.................BLACK :D

As i said i dont really want an Ancillotti as everyone has them and i want something a bit different, but also good for high mileage :o

What i really want is one of these Image I know Jason frost used to do them .

But as no one likes the saddle :cry: i may still go with it :lol: IF i can get it to slide, and look neat :D

Thanks for the replies

I brought a 500mm strip, they can be cut every 3rd led and re-soldered together.

Lovin this.
The saddle is a definite no no, it looks to retro for the Matt black style.
You can get paint on tinter for the flasher lenses from most motor factors, boy racers use it for tinting their lights.
Are those cut back seats comfy? I'm looking for a new seat that fits with a rack??
Keep up the good work, always thought the satin/Matt look was a winner in any colour if done right.

i was playing with my version of the LED strip indicators and then I saw one of those flat sieve things that you put on top of frying pans to stop splashes, so I cut it up, sprayed it black and attached it to the LEDS, the light still shines thru it bright enough to work on the bike but still looks black when they are turned off
good ideas can come from the strangest of places!!!!
