Wow the brake res mod is top's :kuda:

I got a rego tube and mounted it on the left hand side pillion peg bracket when they were removed(looked shit load's better)....The left hand side sticks out like dog's balls IMO when the pegs are removed.....

Love the yellow 6 :kuda:

You can't double anyone for 12mths when you first get your licence but she has her own bike anyway :D :lol:

I have actually done the seat cowl but haven't got a pic of it yet. I have also removed the rear fender, I made a bracket to attach the no. plate to, it looks so much better now. Will take pics 2morrow and post them up.

Yeah Miss Dizz got her own bike so she can work her way up to bumble bee, I actually fell in love with bumble bee first but the man is having heaps of fun with her, and since he is someone who picks things up really quickly Mr dam co-ordinated, he got to ride her first and got his full licence first, ahhhhhhh vell my time will come at which point the man is considering the 10, so about 12-14 months, can't wait till am confident on the bike, we'll get there though. :kuda: :kuda:

Doubling people on sports bike like that = not fun (unless the person on the back weighs less than 60kg then i guess it would be bareable).

Getting confident on a smller bike is a good idea, riding postition is also more forgiving with less pressure on your wrists.
