He can take it! He just rode my little Gixxer in to get the pipe fitted and was a little embarassed by the new girlie fairing stickers(pictured below), especially when a ZX10 pulled up next to him at the lights!

(Me, in true form, was in the car behind him taking pics on my phone!

He loved this one when I sent it to him (cause he knows it isn't true

No consideration you lot - if you were men you'd be much more thoughtful!!!!
Ah- stop your girly moaning and complaining and just appreciate how hot my baby looks.......
(pazzo levers and 'MAJIC' plate still on the way......)
OMG!
My bike sounds HOT!
And those Continental Sport Attack tyres have made an unbelievable difference to the handling!
Thank you so much to Mick at -
Mick's Bike and Car Tyres
Unit 1/36 Deakin St
Brendale
Mick's price and service was second to none- thank you so very much!. Anyone who wants tyres in Brisbane- Mick is your man! Thanks too Mick for sourcing and fitting the Yoshi!
Still to get the Pazzo levers and the 'MAJIC' plate is on order. But here are some pics of the work in progress (a little dirty because I took an opportunity for a squirt on the new tyres in between the torrential rain!) .....

- Yoshi R55

- Fairing stickers

- Tail stickers

- Bar ends

Yep- I think I am with you on that one Blurr. Waiting to see if they start to appeal to me but these were the originals and I really think i liked it that way. May need to take the new ones off-

Fairing stickers are off- they just didn't do it for me.
The Yoshi stays though. BF took the baffle out this arvo- sounds great!

No - it will never be a 10! It's an 11!
I tried to post up a video but it wouldn't load on here. Sounds so different without the baffle. But I have to say that the tyres make an UNBELIEVABLE difference! It is like a different bike! I almost ran straight over the top of a roundabout it tips in so well. The handling has improved dramatically.
(Scrubbing in new tyres in the rain hasn't been a pleasant experience!

The stickers were tacky- it looks much classier with the originals back.
