    Looks really good mate, like its ment to be!
    I cant stand stuff that looks cobbled together.
    You're doing a top job there fella, and another
    work of art in progress.

    That can looks 'kin great. Like the gixxer tail idea too. Is yours the black with the blue flake in it ? if so I would keep it. Just my opinion.
    Yep the frame is black with blue flake but the rest is just plain old high gloss black...
    Don't get me wrong love the black but thinking maybe something different... plus the paint is only about 400kms old, so kind of a shame to get rid of it so early...

    Sweet as ride mate , really good thread to by the way , for mine keep the headlight , get some use out of the black panels..........either short'n up the K5 tail (As I started reading your thread thats what I was going to suggest ) pull it in closer to the tank and make a shorter seat or what about an 06 R6 , that would be trick. Are you going to put a front guard on it I think it needs one. Oh and BTW what photo shop programme do you use ? I have just got the Adobe photo shop 7 but cant seem to create images like I want as you have done with your bandit , with the blue frame and wheels. What about a chrome frame?

    Now thats a freakin reply, cheers Huey.. i was thinking 06 R6 they look very tidy and clean.. A front 04 750 fender is on its way right now left LAX yesterday, love USPS tracking.. the photoshop i use is Adobe Photoshop CS2 V9 its great when you get the hang of it and i use a tablet pen mouse thingy its great too.. framewise i'm more of a powder and paint guy then a chrome and polish.. Cheers

    heres a 98 Bandit 12 from Issue 184 June Streetfighters Mag
    Same forks as mine 05 750 Annodized Black
    03 R1 Swingarm
    06 R6 Race Tail - these things are $300 Aus delivered. Tempting..

    Mate if you are going for one of these go for
    the one with the seat cut out on it cos you
    can move it forward and have a proper seat on it.
    with this one i found you'd want to have a rubber
    arse.

    Definately go with something that has some straight sharp lines to it the R6 definately fits in rather than the buell , the other thing to mate most of the bikes that you have featured as what you like are guys on here ! just food for thought don't know if you have seen this before mate but I think that this tail would suit nicely

    Hey thats the FZR Ben Built.. I love that thing, i love all the fighter seat units like HESA PFERRER and MEGATEC etc but there so damn pricey i cant justify paying $400-$1200 for a seat unit when i can chop up a wrecked gixer tail.. Its all about the dough i'm afraid.. If i won Lotto tomorrow i'd stroll into Extreme Creations with about 70 Grand and go mental with Ben.. but not to be....
