Not naked, cold or afraid any more!! ......

I'm quite jealous, not of the bike (though It is nice) but of the skill and talent you have for your vocation.......I wish I could do that !

I can't even use a rattle can without making a mess.

Well that's a very decent thing to say and I very much appreciate it.
I do love what I do which helps massively as my business is still only 18 months old so the hours are still long and the cash is shall we say 'tentative' Anyone that's taken the plunge and started their own business will no doubt agree that it's bloody tough! I wouldn't change it though .........
Reading a comment like that goes a long way towards putting a smile on my face when things get a bit ...... erm ....... tight!
Thank you :blush
 
It's brilliant. Reminds me of my randy mamola boxercup with that paint job and wheels. Fantastic.
I love the carbon look engine caps.... Where from please?!!!

Hi Titto, thanks for the comments, like tunneruk says the pics dont do it justice
the carbon is from a guy called mark tully from www.adventurecarbon.com its pure 12k autoclave not the rubbish glass fibre backed stuff off ebay, i have some ilmberger carbon fibre which is the market leader but his stuff is just as good and better finished imo but for half the price or even less, the cylinder guards are from R & G kevlar lined and like you say give it that boxer cup look:beerjug:

thats a fine looking machine …great choice of colours and superbly applied
 
Steve, get some pictures of your bike on AdvRider, they'll love that.:thumb:beerjug:
 
Another thumbs up for Chris. IMO, the cylinder covers on the GSA should match the rest of the engine, so in under a week they were sent to Chris, painted, sent back to me, and are now on the bike.:beerjug:

Here's a shot taken just now, in the garage.

Do they match the engine?
 
A superb paint job, the bike does look like a BMW special :thumb2
 
I saw this in the 'flesh'.

The pearlescent colours are incredibly deep and absolutely beautiful. A camera just doesn't do it justice.

Even with my deep scepticism of anything built after 1980:rob, if I saw that in a Motorrad showroom, I'd be very quickly figuring out a way to own it.

Cracking, cracking job. :thumb2
