Bit of a mock up with the new plastics,the front fender is a custom run 250r Maier unit in Kawasaki green the original front fenders are very bulky and look like crap IMHO.Swingarm has been paint stripped and polished up(its alloy),rear shock is getting a re-build and powercoat front shocks a cut back and polish.

Tony
Is that a new carby boot? if so where did you find one of those puppies?

What internal work are doing to the bike? or is it all cosmetic?

Looking awsome by the way

Its that $20 something can of motorcycle case paint,its looks a lot better in person than with the flash from the camera on it,getting all the bolts redone would really make it sweet.
