My baby's back at last

Post by **icebreaker** » Fri Nov 11, 2005 6:05 pm

Well I picked up my baby this arvo.

Thanks to Greg for the loan of the helmet and jacket, and to Duane for giving me a lift from the city to Melboure Motorcycle Fairing Repairs.

Owe and to Rossi for testing to make sure the Throttle was still working

Can you spot the difference in the difference on the spray job? It's fairly subtle.

Looks better actually, oh wait it's cleaner too

I can't remember whether the blue J1 has black-white decals like its red brother ?

Post by **icebreaker** » Fri Nov 11, 2005 7:44 pm

nah blue has white decals on the tank.

The blue was very plain compared to the green and red versions.

Next on the list is a carbon fibre tank protector... and eventually get the wheels re-painted.. the pain on them atm is crap and faded.

Looking good. The black duck bill always stands out too much for me on the Js. Nice one.
