Default my bikes changed a bit

well due to me gettting bored with the look of my bike it changed a bit.
it started as a low milage (1400)cbr 600 rr in red and black
cue pic

very nice and clean
but then some idiot namely me didnt put it on the stand properly on day
result in cracked fairing around the front indictor,only about a few inches long but still i new it was there.
so then i saw the oppertunity to have it all painted.

problem is this did not last
it took the painter so long with this by the time i got the bike back one day of cleaning and looking at it i sent it back to be redone.

repsol has been done to much already in my eyes.
decals was not that bad,a few inprefections but i just waited that long to get it back i went off the ideal.
last bike i polished the wheels and frame(gsxr 600k1)not that bad to keep on top of as long as water dont dry on them.would prefer crome but dont know anywhere that does this to bike rims.

your gay!, spendin all that doe on your paint man,have it how you like it,its your bike after all,may as well enjoy it,soon be nicked or smashed up or sold anyways,

nah,anyway,heres a tip,do your rims with brasso,theyl bead the shit off no bother,and look bling for ages,pluss its a liquid,that doesnt scratch,and is the best for chrome pipes,and they smell good ,like new when they heat up!
