Saw this on FB.
Pretty cool, there's a few tabs they should have chopped off while they had it taken down to the bare frame.
Kinda funny how the reservoirs look like little horns lol

I think the cherry on top would be if they got the fork tubes anodized the same gold color as the frame...

I think what ducatiz means is that it'd be hard to replicate the gold paint colour
when anodising the forks
.
That's why the gold painted sections of my monster are ohlins coloured

Exactly. And given the abuse that forks get, I cant say paint is a good idea. Prove me wrong, but seems to me youd have a pregnant dog of a time slipping a triple over a painted fork tube without scratching it. Anodizing penetrates the surface and is microns thick.
Probably why the only painted forks you see are on bicycles.
