Nahh mate just gunna paint the forks black or polish them right up ( painting engine and swingarm soon to ) I agree with you USD forks are the way to go but very expenisive to do cause i will have to buy CBR forks, tripple clamp ,brakes .They do have USD forks on newer model hornets but they are very basic buget ones and to make it worth while i would have to get them rebuilt and i dont thing u can even adjust them.

Nice, some forks with the black DLC coating (Diamond-like carbon) would look good.

Na it's a type of coating on your fork tubes, like this.
Stock on some GSXR and ZXR over the years not sure of hondas.

Looking good so far , did you think up the clear rad tube or buy it off the shelf? I like the idea, looks effective.

I got the idea when i saw the top rad hose and was inspired by my old pot smoking days from the 90's ( i likeed see-through bongs) and so i googled clear radiator hose and people where talking about a company called killer glass in the states so i paid the money and sent my silicon hose to them and pics of its configuration on bike in feb 2012 then in late march they sent me a email saying it was ready and then months went by with me sending 1 email a month asking very polite what the go was ? and could i have a update on my order and i never got a reply .So by late june i was pissed off and was sick of been Mr nice guy so i started leaving bad comments on KG youtube videos about how they had fucked me over and sent killer glass links to show them what i was doing and said all i want is some1 to tell me what is going and that like i told them ages ago i dont care if its not finished i just want to know what the go was.Yep and sure enough they emailed me back straight away ( Meanwhile the elders of the USA site Honda599.com that i was on at the time went mental at me and tried to say i was the bad guy and that i deserved to be ripped off because i was a redneck aussie idiot whose spelling and grammar was that of a retard and that Americans companies would of seen that i was a retard and would not want to talk to me ( but would be happy to take my money and silicon hose) But my way worked and i got my order and sold the free one that KG threw in so it cost me nothing for my KG.So after i got my glass i posted pic and said yeah looks like my way worked and the forum elders didnt like this so i got banned Even though i had been abused for months about it but there ego's couldnt handle it.So here is the site i got it from ( took me 6 months but you mite have better luck than me after i showed aussies dont take shit lying down) Cost me $200 and i had to pay for my hose to be posted to USA http://killerglass.com/

Oh yeah u can use acrylic tube with a 4 mm wall but it doesnt quite have the same finish as killerglass ( and killerglass is not normal glass its the same type of glass that was used in the windows on the apollo space program) and anyone that has a problem with me warning the forum about a company that i brought to its attention ...well i think u know what i think u can go and do......

Yeah all good mate just saying is all , Thought i better say what happened with my dealings with killer glass company is all ( yeah the story about honda599 didnt need to be in there but everytime i think about killer glass i think about them tossers i tried to help ( they kept asking me why i had not got it yet, so i told them what was happening and the ungratefull pricks turned on me cause i fort for what was mine)
