looks class but id ditch the 50p numbers as they render it more chav than class :D
 
Looks great Mark. I agree with Trev though. Those numbers spoil it. Along with the dirty engine :augie
 
The numbers were a bit more than 50p. They are actually a mid grey, outlined in white but the flash makes them look pure white. I want the oily rag look as if I cleaned it to the n`th degree I wouldn`t want to ride it.
I would like to make the swinging arm and wheels black, but that would probably be another £100. Maybe at some time in the future.
 
If you don`t like the side panel number you are going to fucking hate this:thumb......

Once borrowed a V50 when my GS1000S went in for its first service many years ago. What a sweet handling fun little bike it was two. Must say that was when i was racing Snake size,and not Tosser size as now. Still give it a good go tho. NO POLISH PLEASE.
 
Coo! ~ i'd love a ride on her! :drool
Like those Jota 'Bars - but suprised at the 'saddle' :eek: .
That alone will limit your mileage.
Personally i'd make it much more comfy. ;)

If I wanted comfort I wouldn`t have gone the cafe route:D
In reality it will only get used for commuting and the odd weekend blast.
 
Two V50's. Seen, heard and watched racing at the Moto Piston rally in 2011.
