Heres one I did earlier.....

Just finished re-assembling my pride 'n joy.

Bought it last June from a local tosser, its a really nice clean bike 98 model with 52k when i bought it fdsh and virtually 1 owner from new as the guy I bought it off had it 6 mths and did 2-300 miles .....

Moving on - since buying it its done another 5k and has had new wilbers shocks, steptoe’s headgaurds, final drive brgs and seal, MRA screen, fastaways and most recently a short beak (I had a 11gs back in 95 loved the bike but hated the beak hence the make over).

What do you reckon - improvement or not?

A great improvement I think. I don't like the standard 1100 beak either and reckon you have done a good job there.

The short beak looks good

The red seats don't

we should have swapped seats
I did the opposite

Short beak does make the bike look better

+2... My 1150 was the same colours & first mod I did was to swap red seats for black. The beak looks great, though

 

[contact23]

like the head gaurds and the red seats are pretty cool

I don't think much of the sidecar in the first pic. You did the right thing ditching that.
Like the short bonce too.

Cheers guys!

Well thanks for all your comments, I must admit I like the red seats I think it adds a bit of colour imo (i also liked the yellow seat on my first bumble bee 1100).

I guess its just a matter of taste or lack off on my behalf.

Now you're talking... Bumblebee is the best colourscheme IMO

I like the modifications you have done , the beak is shorter than mine .

I shortened my beak at the front .
cut back and reshaped the lower mudguard.
inserted stainless grills into the side piece at front.
N colour matched the lot, sort of...

Looks V nice, suits you sir!
Let's hope we don't get another couple of months of snow - god knows what you will find to paint/polish/reshape/bolt on/cut off............
