Look what someone did to a Kawasaki Versys.  Now this person had some vision.

Very nice, indeed.  If the owner had better vision, he should have bought a S4R dark to start with.  Would have saved him a lot more time and money.  :)

pretty bad ass looking.  I love when people use rain slicks on street bikes.  The look so fking cool.  

Powder coat the spring black and it's are finished...

Huh?  I bet that thing cost half as much as an S4R.  Looks like he just took a bunch of stuff of, added a headlight, an exhaust, and a bunch of flat black rattle can.  Its alright I guess, in a kawasaki kind of way.

I kinda like the spring as it is.  If it were black the whole center section of the bike would be a clustermake the beast with two backs of different shades/textures of black, but as it is the spring pops. 

I actually like that a lot.  I looked (fleetingly) at the Versys before I bought the Duc but it was basically the aesthetics that pushed me away.  At the same time though, I've seen some people do some pretty sweet things with SV650/1000s, adn they're not riding around on Kawis :)

I can certainly dig that!!  Job very well done [thumbsup]

BTW that doesn't look like a rattle can paint job to me.  There's several hints of copper? color which ties into the spring which isn't the stock color either.

Travman,  do you have any more info on that bike?

I agree with you, although the bike would really pop if the wheels were the same copper color as the spring, or at least copper-colored wheel stripes.  JMHO.

I was thinking the same thing! Jumbo shrimp!

Are those rain slicks, or are they flat track tires?  I've been wanting to build a super moto around a set of those tires.
