For those of you Watercooled riders that have yet to undress your prized motorcycles ..........

This is what they look like! :aidan

This particular example has a mere 31 miles on the clock!

In for a paint job?

I was thinking of giving you a shout and maybe getting my Wheels done in Gloss Black and the tank side panels done to match.
 
Any nadgery fixings you have to be careful of undoing or are they all fairly easy to undo? Will be stripping mine to route mini spots I picked up from R&G at the show on Sunday. Am running the leads from the battery not the CAN Bus trigger route. Ta.

The only fiddly bit is releasing the push snap fittings which hold the intake scoops to the lower rad mount. This particular bike had a slightly cross threaded centre bolt on the front of the tank cover which is disappointing. I'll sort that out though.
 
This is going to look the tits! I'll be keeping an eyeball on your progress.
I dare say my 2015 TE will need a full respray after the winter, what with the water based shit they use these days.

I didn't realise that they had such a short wheelbase these new GS's. And oval wheels too, must be to compliment the LC's legendary gearbox :green gri :D
