Well I picked up my baby this arvo.

Thanks to Greg for the loan of the helmet and jacket, and to Duane for giving me a lift from the city to Melboure Motorcycle Fairing Repairs.

Owe and to Rossi for testing to make sure the Throttle was still working ;)


Can you spot the difference in the difference on the spray job? It's fairly subtle.

Looks better actually, oh wait it's cleaner too :lol:

I can't remember whether the blue J1 has black-white decals like its red brother ?

nah blue has white decals on the tank.

The blue was very plain compared to the green and red versions.


Next on the list is a carbon fibre tank protector... and eventually get the wheels re-painted.. the pain on them atm is crap and faded.

Looking good. The black duck bill always stands out too much for me on the Js. Nice one.
