Finally Complete!!!

  

be vertical -> Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 7:17:15 PM)

So after a long awaited season, my friggin' bike is finally done. Actually I still have to change the oil and bleed the brakes, but for all intensive purposes its done. I did so much I cant really remember, but here is a list to the best of my knowledge, plus a whole lot of pics. Let me know what you think, I think it looks amazing, but I want to know what the community thinks!!!

Stock wheels stripped, polished, and color-match powder coated
Pilot power race mediums, mounted, and balanced
Vortex (-1/+1) 15/43 sprockets, with DID x-link 525 chain
Carbon fiber chain gaurd
Color matched hugger (hotbodies, and its a POS dont buy it)
CBRforum vinyls, of course...
Goodridge front and rear SS brake lines
Yosh rs5 slip on
hotbodies flush mount front signals
BMC race filter
Vortex sliders and spools
Sixty61 spike bar ends and windscreen bolts
Piug blacked out wind screen
CRG clic-roll shorty cluck and brake levers
Custom built tail light into tail, with integrated signals
Tripage FE
Icon primer tank pack, with magnets mounted under tank fairing
Motovation axle and fork sliders
HIDs (two kits, not yet installed)
HRC rear seat cowl

I also have the passenger pegs powder-coated blue for when I have the rear seat on for the girl... and the heel guards too, just didnt get a chance to put them on today.

Thats all I can remember for now, but I think there is more... oh well just look!!!
PS - I didnt wash her yet, still a little dirty but you get the idea... Now I just need weather to ride!

Damn really sick, How's she ride... And thats a sick looking tire hugger, whys it suck?

WoodyRR -> RE: Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 8:03:32 PM)

I can honestly say that I GUARANTEE there's no other bike in the WORLD like yours! That says something, be proud! I have a question about the wheels though. Why does the front not have a polished lip and the rear does? Wouldn't you want both to match with a polished lip? Or both not to have a polished lip?

Karl -> RE: Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 8:05:45 PM)

WOW i cant believe how good those blue rims look!!! the bike looks fantastic! that really is one of a kind [:)] awsome job it's been well worth the time and effort the outcome is excellent. that is 1 sick looking bike [sm=groupwave.gif]

FireStourm -> RE: Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 8:14:09 PM)

I wont start explaining the things I would do to your bike alone.....  Take that as its reallllly frigggin sexy [;)].  

be vertical -> RE: Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 8:17:50 PM)

Thanks guys... I put a lot of time into it, glad im getting the approvals. I only polished the rear lip for two reasons.. 1) I was trying to balance the amount of silver between the front and the back, and there is already a ton of silver up front., and 2) polishing is a real pain, it takes forever, and makes a huuuge mess. After doing the first one, I figured it would be enough and called it quits. I like the way it came out though... got some bling factor, but its not overwhelming.

I only rolled it up and down my block a few times today to get the chain lubed up, because I have no brakes yet (no fluid in the lines)... So I have not been all out with her yet, but im going to be taking it easy for a while until the sand gets off the road and the tires get broken in...

The hugger doesn't sit center over the wheel, its crooked, not super noticeable, but it wasn't cheap, and im kind of a perfectionist.

I LOVE the way my logo looks on a bike. [:)]

I only have one teenie, tiny thing that is buggin the crap out of me...........POLISH THE LIP ON THE FRONT WHEEL TO MATCH THE REAR! [:@]

I mean, honestly, the bike looks absolutely AMAZING, but everytime I see a pic of both wheels, I cringe because the front doesn't match the rear, and IMO, it would look SO MUCH better with a polished lip like the rear. That's all.........and the rest of it looks amazing again. Great work. [;)]

Thanks Fox.. Yeah the logo looks great. I dont know if you saw, but I have it under the "truth" on the windscreen as well. Kinda discrete, but its may little way of showing loyalty. I can see what you mean about the wheels, I do like it however. It has always been my plan to get the blue marchesani's. Hopefully I will do it by next season, its just that 475 is more affordable than the 2400 it will cost me for the mags.

That's all that matters really. Does Red have these "Martini's" too?

skical -> RE: Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 9:07:48 PM)

I like the wheels too. Very original and nice scheme.

be vertical -> RE: Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 9:11:55 PM)

Red Martini's?

Blue Fox -> RE: Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 9:14:31 PM)

^^Marchesani's............I call them Martini's because I always mispronounce and misspell the name. And I was referring to Red's (the member) wheels on his bike. I can't remember if his are Martini's are not.

be vertical -> RE: Finally Complete!!! (4/3/2008 9:30:26 PM)

Oh... yeah he has 'Martini's' in black. I was confused, as Martini is actually a world renowned race team, who makes custom ducatis and stuff.
