I will have to ask Chris where he machined it.  He had a friend who had some time on a machine that he could use and did mine when he did his.  I have seen people on the net that will do it for $75.  It's coated with black paint.

Got the correct CRGs a few days ago and got them on the bike.

I hate to do this to you at this stage in the game.... but I was looking at it. With all those cherry gold bits on it, the tank would look absolutely schweeeet if you took off the stock stripes and had gold ones painted on. Black with gold stripes.... it's a classic(Hertz Shelby Mustang anyone?).

I agree.

I agree as well.  I would either like gold stripes or no stripes better than the white stripes and..... a 1080 high comp kit and ohlins front end with radial brakes (thems gold forks) and and ohlins rear and.......


Sweet Europa!

Yah it'd be Hertz mustang esque for sure.  That thing is definitely like a muscle car.  Loud, torquey, not a lot top end but.... it does handle really well, maybe it's not like a muscle car.  It is Italian.

Looks great.  Would look even better with the following: Gold ohlins front forks, rear swingarm in black, and gold stripe to match the rest.
Who insures the FDIC?

don't forget the 1080 high comp kit.  That would make it look awesome.  ;)
