do what i did, just buy her one, my mrs cant ride a bicycle let alone a motorcycle, me doing all the monkey work etc and getting her wheels done has had her real excitted,

shes not done her CBT yet, my plan is to get the bike painted and rebuilt within the next few weeks, then teach her on a carpark put in for CBT gain more experiance, then get her for DAS and then maybe a 400GB for her :)

she was first of all paranoid etc etc, and now reall keen and excitted.

cheers tony,

the paint still hasnt turned up :down:
im waiting for delivery of a few things i gots the feeling the RM are taking the piss.

ive stopped preping the front shortly after i took those pics, i noticed a few small cracks in the laquer where the rotor will go thank fully, so im gonna leave them for a few days just in case handling them is causing it.

i masked all the holes and mating faces but the masking tape is a proper bitch to remove after powder coat, still better than having to sand off i guess.

Gold Wheels look spot on. What RAL did you go with in the end?
