Title: supermoto re-do
Post by: slow600 on May 11, 2010, 03:30:05 AM

heres a before and after shot of my 500. decided to have the frame and swingarm pc'd as well as the pipe. bike also got a new headlight and new from scratch wiring harness. motor was still pretty fresh, i did send out the head to have the squish cut. still have a few loose ends to tie up as well as pic some graphics. any suggestions?

Looks sweet either way. I do like the black pipe with the shiny badge. Good job.

thanks, the pipe was a suprise to me but i liked the way it turned out. only update i have is the addition of this uber sweet gauge, traded a used set of tires for it.

haha thanks, im not near as smooth on it as my other bikes but it puts a smile on my face everytime i ride it. i actually had a riding buddy try and diag what he thought was a slipping clutch, said there was no way i could pull on him so hard out of a corner :-D

Excellent! Makes me want to paint my pro circuit pipe now...after I get the new ding out,ouch! What manufacturer is the tank? More is better as they say( tho fuel saddlebags might be abit extreme-not to mention potentially explosive) ...

Very nice looking bike. I also liked it without decals, but it looks great with them as well. Looks like my KX5 SuMo is back on... May pull these pics up for inspiration!
