First big change as you can see I've had a little paint job done on the wheels.
Jay from Dapto has done a cracker job on the wheels.

So far I am on my second set of indicators, these are some from a great Italian shop I have found via another Ducatist.
Tail light came from the same place, there is a little sprocket work to be done tomorrow.
Overall I am stoked with the change in tone of the bike and am planning the next items to be go under Jay's spray gun.

Of course I'll do some better pics over the weekend, these are just a couple of quick ones straight after the wheels went on.

looking purdy so far Matty.  Gold wheels are nice.  Be interesting to see how dirty they get (I'm very slack when it comes to cleaning my bike!).

I think the rear light is much more form flatterinf (to the sweep of the rear cowl) then the standard rectangular one. well done!

the rear end lights look very 749/999 style!

Lookin' good Matty. Jay did the repairs & painting on my tank. Could not give him a better wrap myself  waytogo Top work, good price, and knows his stuff big time.

Look forward to seeing the new ride out tomorrow. [moto] ducsport

The tail light and indicators came from Omnia Racling
If you click the link page and go to there Ebay store it works better than the website.
