          • Wheels soon I promise. Its cold out there!
            Paint is on the list as well - its a pretty rough job (guy I bought it off did it with rattle cans I'm pretty sure!) I just have to decide whether to do it again in Matte black (I already have the paint.) Or do I maybe do it in gloss? Decisions!

              matte black is pretty cool but after a few years it gets to ya, an then you have to folk out more money !
              may as well leave it. spend alot of time drewling on gloss pic's until your like "I want" !!

                with wax grease remover, mask then paint, with a spray gun.

                      I went an 82cm which looks fine, but I think I could have gone one size up.

                      • Yeah I've got the 871XT which is the 97cm one. Didn't know there's an Aussie source for fairings now, should make things much easier to get!
