CF Termis are dark. I'll be adding those next month.

I'd love to powdercoat the foot peg arm but the frame and motor are tied into it.  maybe duracoat.

I do believe the peg assembly can be taken off, with out any issues.  Just make sure to use a paddock stand or some other means of support,  as the side stand is tied into it.
